Upset about the DNC hiding the 2024 autopsy? Don’t be – a 2028 pre-mortem is actually what’s needed. Democrats misread the last three elections, and need to get ahead of a 2026 mirage.

🚨Welcome’s Win the Middle slate is filling out for the 2026 cycle with the addition of these great candidates!
The left has proven unable to win elections like the special election in Tennessee. But we know that, so can't blame them - gotta just step up and admit Centrist Need To Try Harder To Win Tough Races. www.welcomestack.org/p/centrists-...
Focusing on affordability alone won’t win races for Democrats.
In moderate and conservative districts, we need candidates who don’t have to outrun a left wing record.
GOP was vulnerable in Tennessee
Aftyn Behn ran hard and Dems spent millions. But ...
Affordability message can't outrun a leftwing record.

Jared Golden's retirement should be a wake-up call for the country. We are losing good political leaders because of extreme polarization. www.welcomestack.org/p/the-golden...
As we head into the new year, all eyes will be on the House of Representatives. Republicans are trying to gerrymander states to shrink the battlefield. We don't think it will hold up. www.welcomestack.org/p/congressio...
Black and Hispanic voters once made up the base for the Democratic Party.
Now, they’re turning away.
Why? We explain: www.welcomestack.org/p/how-democr...
Republicans thought they could gerrymander states like Texas and keep the House in 2026. Turns out, their plan might backfire. Here's why: www.welcomestack.org/p/congressio...
Republicans redrew the Texas map assuming their 2024 strength with Latinos would hold. But the 2025 elections suggest a moderate like Bobby Pulido could ruin their plans. www.welcomestack.org/p/congressio...
Cool kid Hot take: moderation doesn’t matter, it’s all about vibes. Reality: voters actually care about where politicians stand on issues, as Milan Singh shows: www.welcomestack.org/p/voters-are...
Democrats are increasingly the party of college-educated white people. Black and Hispanic voters who once made up the "base" have slowly been turning away from the party. Lauren Harper Pope explains why. www.welcomestack.org/p/how-democr...
Ben McAdams is running again, and we're glad to see it. As we said last week: he's a proven winner, and is ready to take back a Congressional seat in Utah. www.welcomestack.org/p/deciding-t...
"If Democrats hope to lead a restless nation, we must lay out a clear platform rooted in a commitment to the middle class and those aspiring to it, based on the ideals of our party’s past, yet envisioned for a new age."
This is Tom Suozzi's vision for a new kind of old-fashioned democrat.
Donald Trump’s approval rating continues to fall.
Following Tuesday’s results, it’s clear—Democrats can win in 2026.
The key? Move to the middle.
This week, moderate candidates in Virginia and New Jersey, smashed expectations by running on pragmatic solutions.

The lessons from last night should come from Virginia and New Jersey, where moderate Democrats smashed expectations by running on pragmatic solutions, not left-wing ideology. www.welcomestack.org/p/the-real-l...

Past performance doesn’t guarantee future results.
But it’s usually the best clue we’ve got.
Ben McAdams is a superstar, and he needs to run again.

Democrats need to get back to winning again.
We used to win in states like Florida and Ohio. We used to have Senators in West Virginia and Montana.
Here's how we got here: www.welcomestack.org/p/deciding-t...
How did Democrats go from winning in states like Florida, Ohio, and Iowa and having U.S. senators in North Dakota, Montana, Missouri, and West Virginia to pundits now warning of a permanent Republican majority in the Senate?
Here's how: www.welcomestack.org/p/deciding-t...
🚨 Donald Trump and the Republican Party are damaging our economy and threatening our democracy.
Democrats need to learn how to win again, but they can't do it with the same old tactics and candidates.
Here's exactly how Democrats can start winning: www.welcomestack.org/p/introducin...
