the definition of insanity
The DCCC’s primary meddling campaign has made its way to New York.
After the effort completely backfired in Texas’ 7th District and propelled a little-known candidate into the runoff, local Democrat leaders in NY-24 are sounding the alarms.
The chairs released a joint statement Wednesday criticizing the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee for “meddling” in the 24th district race. The comments are in response to the DCCC’s apparent effort to get Perez Williams, who ran unsuccessfully for Syracuse mayor last year, on the Democratic congressional primary ballot.
“The actions in NY-24 are unfortunately just the latest example of the DCCC not taking into account the work happening at the grassroots this year,” the chairs wrote. “From leaders in the Indivisible movement to party and elected officials, we stand united behind our designated nominee, Dana Balter, and against D.C. meddling that has hampered far too many races thus far.
The clock’s ticking. How long does Dana Balter have until the DCCC drops another opposition research book on one of their own candidates?
