Why I'm Running for Texas Democratic Party Chair
I am running to be the next Chair of the Texas Democratic Party because like you, I was heartbroken and angry after the last election. Despite the very real progress our party has made to improve the lives of people in Texas, we failed to make our case to the diverse array of voters we need to win. To me, the reason is clear: our party has been too focused on serving the political class and not focused enough on connecting with voters across Texas.
Leading a state party of our size is a serious endeavor. It requires someone willing to be honest about where we are, assess what needs to change, and then do the work it takes to win again. It requires someone with a proven track record of building broad, diverse coalitions that put Democrats in office.
