Democratic Party divisions over releasing 2024 election autopsy report
Democrats are divided on whether to publicly release the Democratic National Committee's internal post-mortem analysis of the 2024 presidential election loss. DNC Chair Ken Martin has opposed release, calling it a distraction, while some Democrats in Congress and Kamala Harris have called for transparency. Gov. Wes Moore told Politico the party should move forward rather than dwell on the loss.
