David Hogg is not quite out yet as a DNC vice chair (one of five), but God willing, he will be soon. Dig this headline:
BREAKING: DNC moves to void leadership election of David Hogg, Malcolm Kenyatta"The DNC has pledged to remove me, and this vote has provided an avenue to fast-track that effort."
A committee within the Democratic National Committee has voted to void the results of a party vote that led to David Hogg becoming a party vice chair.
Per the New York Times, the credentials committee ruled that the election had not followed parliamentary procedures. The ruling came after one of the losing candidates, Kalyn Free, said the party had wrongly combined two questions into a single vote, which put defame candidates at a disadvantage due to the DNC’s gender parity rules.
The decision came after around three hours of internal debate and one vote that resulted in a tie. The issue now goes to the full body of the DNC. The DNC will decide whether to force Hogg and another vice chair, Malcolm Kenyatta, to run again in another election.
Hogg acknowledged in a statement that the decision had been based on procedural grounds, but "it is also impossible to ignore the broader context of my work to reform the party which loomed large over this vote. The DNC has pledged to remove me, and this vote has provided an avenue to fast-track that effort."
Hogg was on Maher recently.
