Every candidate for DNC chair believes racism, misogyny to blame for Kamala’s loss

MSNBC host Johnathan Capehart asked the DNC chair candidates to raise their hands if they agreed that "racism and misogyny played a role in Vice President Harris' defeat."

Each candidate for the DNC chair position raised their hands to the laughter of the audience, to which Capehart responded, "Ok, that's good, you all pass," leading to more laughter from the audience, many of whom also raised their hands along with the candidates on stage.

Jamie Harrison, the outgoing DNC chair, said that the party has "got to be more elastic than rigid" as the Democrats move forward from their loss in November, in which Trump, as a Republican, won the popular vote for the GOP for the first time in over a decade, according to CBS News.

"Sometimes, we got folks that are very rigid. If you don't have the right job, if you didn't come from the right community, if you don't say the right word, and then therefore you are x-ed out or you're castigated," Harrison said.

The party will be picking a replacement for Harrison, who has insisted that the party makes room for an "open tent" to let in more people. The candidates that have the most support behind them, according to NBC News, are Minnesota's Ken Martin as well as Wisconsin’s Ben Wikler.

Martin has said that there has been a shift in the parties, to where the Republicans "best represents the interests of the working class and the poor, and the Democratic Party is a party [of] the wealthy and elites."

That image that some have perceived did not help them in the last election. The DNC chair election comes after Democrats were in chaos immediately after the election of Trump in November.
