Video: DNC – Future Forum Detroit, including Virginia’s own Adam Parkhomenko and Yasmine Taeb, who are running for Vice Chair and Vice Chair for Civic Engagement and Voter Participation, respectively. For a full list of DNC candidates, see below. Lots of impressive candidates, with a few of the vice chair candidates (in addition to the two Virginia candidates) – Michael Blake, Maria Elena Durazo and Grace Meng – really impressing me. For Chair, it sounds like it’s probably a race between Tom Perez and Keith Ellison, but who knows, maybe a “dark horse” like Pete Buttigieg will pull an upset. Should be interesting; stay tuned…including to next Saturday’s forum in Baltimore.
