General Discussion

I read the WSJ interview with one of the three self-proclaimed "activists" who claimed that they "handpicked" Platner and also claimed that the oppo form they hired missed a bunch of things.

That left me with nothing but more questions and I think it's important that the Democratic Party learn more about how this all happened.

My one very strong takeaway is that Platner was not well vetted, at all. Why not? Where was the national and state Democratic Party in this? Who is responsible for vetting primary candidates?

There's a really fundamental issue here that needs to be addressed.

And yes it's very clear that voters are hungry for new ideas and radical promises. That's been clear since 2016 and the DNC needs to get onboard and lead or get out of the way.
