Ken Martin, Chairman of the National Democratic Committee (DNC), stopped in the battlefield for one time that turned into Ohio this week, as part of his “fiftieth state strategy” to help Democrats try to win the elections from the coast to the coast.

“We cannot be a party focusing only on the national authority, because the elections were not won in the capital, as they won states like Ohio,” Martin said in Cleveland at a forum on the future of the Democratic Party. “Ohio is a huge swing in 2026.”

Martin, who was elected as DNC President at the beginning of February, is on a mission to help Democrats escape the political wilderness, after amazing setbacks in the November elections, when the party lost control of the White House and the Senate and dismissed the victory of the majority of the House of Representatives.

But while the Democrats are now active to resist President Donald Trump’s unique and controversial agenda during his second tour of the duty in the White House, Martin’s duration, which has so far directed the National Party magazine, has been nothing but smooth sailing.

Two senior work leaders left DNC ​​in the latest blow to Democrats

“There is a big vacuum of leadership in the Democratic Party, and Kane proves that he is a weak and ineffective leader who is not ready for any of this,” Fox News said.

Martin – who was long -term for -time for Democrats in Minnesota when he won the DNC chair elections – has been hindered during the first four and a half months at work.

David Huj, a 25 -year -old activist and survivor of the school, who was elected as Vice President of DNC on the same day that Martin won the President’s elections, ignited a civil war within the party by pledging to spend millions of dollars through his external political group to support the elementary hardness of some older Democrats in the blue areas that he said was “on the wheels.”

Hogg’s threat to spend money against his colleagues, unprecedented in DNC, eventually led to his exit from the National Party committee earlier this month.

Saddam with Hogg guaranteed an embarrassing voice of Martin – who was leaked to the press – from the chair who doubts his ability to lead DNC.

Martin said about Hogg in the registration, which was first reported By USADailyTrends. “I don’t know if I want to do this anymore.”

The favorable classifications of the Democratic Party decreased to its lowest historical levels

Days later – more bad news – where two senior national work leaders left their roles in DNC.

Randy Winjern, President of the American Federation of Teachers, and Lee Sonders, President of the US State Federation for the State, Conservation and Municipality, rejected offers to stay as members of DNC while interrogating the party’s direction under Martin’s leadership.

Meanwhile, in the battle to collect decisive donations with the competing Republican National Committee, DNC lags back, according to the latest cash numbers of the campaign.

The latest deposits at the RNC Federal Electoral Committee appear with a resolution of $ 67 million at hand from the end of April, as it is advancing a lot of $ 17 million in its treasures.

Although internal fighting during the past few months may calm down, the party’s fundraising may be a concern because the Democrats aim to strengthen the House of Representatives and perhaps the Senate in the mid -term elections next year.

A member of the DNC committee, who also asked not to be identified, told Fox News that Martin’s duration so far was “disappointing.”

Meanwhile, Maria Cardona, who has been under democratic strategies for a long time and a member of the current DNC ​​committee, told Fox News, “DNC members feel frustrated and sick from fighting and I hope that everyone will overcome themselves and focus on helping the Chairman of the Board Martin and the Republicans in the party instead of attacking each other.

“We have no time for this nonsense. Our country and our democracy face existential threats every day, and this is where 1,000 % of our battle should be,” said Cardona.

A former DNC official, whose identity was not disclosed, acknowledged that “the Democratic Party is in the reconstruction.” Everyone knew it would be a difficult task. “

But the official added, “This is also the reason why the party is elected by an overwhelming majority Ken and trusted him to drive the road. Instead of creating unnecessary deviations that make his job more difficult, Democrats must work together and focus on the only important thing:” victory. “

“All that Kane did, regardless of the drama that caused this, was the right moves.”

She and others have noticed Martin’s support for the success of Democrats in recent months in elections outside the year and private, as well as the increasing investments in DNC in the outskirts of the state.

Another member of the committee, whose identity was not disclosed, referred to the strong traditional role of the head of the National Party when their party is out of power in the White House.

“Kane is the president,” the committee member told Fox News. “Kane is rebuilding home … still has some main renovations to do it.”

But a member of the committee added that this role could spoil the feathers with others within the party.

We supported the Wendarten and Saunders, Martin’s competitor in the race on the DNC chair, the leader of the Democratic Party in Wisconsin now Ben Wecler. As a president, Martin later removed Weingarten from the DNC rules and regulations, the group responsible for formulating the evaluation and presidential nomination of the Democratic Party and the election process.

A member of the DNC Fox News Digital Committee told that he was not surprising, “The union leaders decided to step down from DNC,” given that both support another candidate. “

Martin, in an interview this week with New York Times“I know that there are many people with grudges, who are still being charged by the campaign that their person has not won,” he said.

“Some people in the capital only want to win an argument, but I focused on winning the elections. This year, Democrats have an unprecedented busy record of 32 wins and excessive racing performance throughout the country. This is what I was elected,” Martin said, in a statement.

The chair highlighted that “we must give up noise and focus on what it succeeds” and that “the American people do not care about the gossip of Bilteway, nor I – they want to know that the Democrats are fighting for them. Under my leadership, this is what DNC ​​does.”
