Following months of internal debate over whether to release its review of the 2024 losses, the Democratic National Committee on Thursday published a long-delayed 192-page document that drew immediate criticism from within the party for its unfinished state and lack of supporting evidence.
Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin apologized for withholding the report after receiving it late last year. He said it lacked source material and was not ready for release, adding that he did not want to distract from recent Democratic wins in Virginia and New Jersey. Martin owned the decision on a private call with members, stating it was a major mistake.
