The Democratic Party’s future goes through the nation’s cities and suburbs
This divide is emphatically presented to us in every election as we watch the nation’s votes being tallied on the electoral map. Within most states, we inevitably see a confluence of blue, urban and suburban, contrasting with a sea of deep red in the rural hinterlands, as people make their political preferences known. Despite the hopeful aspirations of many (mostly Democratic) politicians, this divergence is now a simple fact of American […]
Nuts & Bolts: Inside a Democratic campaign: Land does not vote
You can’t give up on rural areas, but you have to be smart We look at rural areas of a state being large, red districts, and we think to ourselves that it’s going to be difficult to change them. If we put all of our efforts into trying to reach out to communities that are spread so thinly, our efforts can be washed away. Frankly, the biggest problem we face in […]
Democratic response to Americans’ acute needs primes midterm message

New York City’s once-powerful Democratic bosses sit out mayor’s race
“We have heard reported over and over again that there is not a Queens candidate running for mayor. That is not true. I am the Queens candidate,” Adams, who grew up in Queens, told its Democratic county organization at a virtual forum earlier this month. “This is a borough that is dear to my heart.” Two weeks later, Rep. Greg Meeks, who runs the Queens Democratic party, announced the organization’s […]
Our maps show the last time every county voted Democratic or Republican in a presidential election
In fact, there are 25 counties and independent cities that have never supported a Democrat for president. Only a few of them are in the Midwest (although there are many Midwestern counties that haven’t voted Democratic since the 1930s or even earlier). Instead, they tend to pop up in distinct parts of Appalachia, especially eastern Tennessee and south central Kentucky. These are mountainous areas where there’s little agriculture because of the […]
