Democratic strategist Chuck Rocha discussed considering a run for the Democratic National Committee chair after the party’s stunning election losses.
Democratic strategist and former Bernie Sanders advisor Chuck Rocha described his plan to potentially run to lead the Democratic National Committee. As the field for a new DNC head grows, Rocha suggested he could be the next one to throw his cowboy hat into the ring. However, he clarified that it would ultimately depend on who else is running and the rules for running. 'I want to see the rules. I want to see what actually the rules are going to be to run. I talked to the DNC this weekend.
want to do this because I want to return the party back to what we were when I joined it, fighting for middle class values, being the party of workers, being the party of the common man, making Democrats fun again. If there‘s somebody else that can do that, I‘m going to jump in behind them and run their campaign if I can. But if nobody does, that’s when I put my name forward,' Rocha said.
We‘ve got to get back to owning that space and being a little bit tougher and not afraid to kind of beat our chest,' Rocha said. So far, two other people have announced their runs for DNC chief. Former two-term Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, a 2016 Democratic presidential candidate who for the past year has served as Social Security administration commissioner in President Biden's administration, announced his candidacy on Monday.
