It’ll still be #AHOD *after* , but we’ll have an opportunity to begin shaping our foundation for ‘28 — new democratic leadership, young(er), dynamic members, a *committed* #50StateStrategy (killed by Rahm E in 08), Union outreach & organizing
We must work like our lives depend on it, because they do
Endless work. @kenmartin.bsky.social & the #DNC started 2025 out right - sending $1 M a month out (collectively) to the State Dem Party orgs.
Reactivating the #50StateStrategy
What the Dems in the states need to do?
Put a candidate in #EveryRaceEveryPlace in 2026.
Leave no seat unchallenged!
the strategists still balk at a 50-state strategy just like they did when Howard Dean suggested it. And what has happened in the meantime? Shit has hit the fan and we are facing down fascism every single day.
#50StateStrategy
Chairman Martin,
I read the #DNC is sending $1 M to each of the state Dem Party orgs.
If that is true, why aren’t you promoting THAT widely? It shows YOU get that state-level actions determine election wins & losses.
The #50StateStrategy which #HowardDean used to flip the U.S. House in 2006.
Howard Dean proved it, Obama benefitted from it in getting elected, then the D's promptly went back to their corporate overlords and forgot it again - Fifty-State-Strategy! #howarddean #obama #50statestrategy
Perhaps the entire Democratic party needs to hold special federal elections now to replace the ones too scared or weak to try

Bring back the #50StateStrategy to run Dems up and down the ticket, every time, everywhere 👍
I’m tired of the consultant-driven Dem Party. We only focus on areas we think we can win & ignore everyone else. This has led us to abandoning rural America &the states of FL, MO, OH & IA - all once competitive places that are now pure R. Winning in those places would change a LOT! #50StateStrategy
But do not overlook some of the margins in the pale blue sections of MA. We're taking it for granted that the blue states will always be blue. GOP voters noticed that Warren was not even in the state on Election Day. #50StateStrategy
DNC is looking at Rahm Emanuel. I hope Rahm Emanuel is looking at Howard Dean and the 50-state strategy. You wouldn’t believe how many Republicans run unopposed in the red states. Incremental gains count! #50StateStrategy
#PAWriting I want to hear any and all ideas you have regarding Progressives getting voting into state legislatures. #50StateStrategy
