House Democrats Press DNC to Release 2024 Election Autopsy as 2028 Harris Questions Grow
1 articles · Updated · Fox News · May 19
House Democrats are openly challenging the DNC’s decision to withhold its 2024 election review, with lawmakers including Glenn Ivey, Rashida Tlaib and Hank Johnson saying the party should publish what went wrong after its sweeping losses.
The pressure is rising because the autopsy was commissioned after Democrats lost the presidency and congressional ground in 2024, yet Chair Ken Martin has argued releasing it before the midterms would be a distraction if it does not help win back Congress.
Kamala Harris has also signaled support for making the report public and said she was unaware Martin had decided against releasing it, adding to internal scrutiny of how the party is handling the review.
That fight now reaches beyond transparency: some Democrats say keeping the report sealed shields Harris from renewed criticism ahead of a possible 2028 run, while others argue disclosure would help the party regroup before November’s midterms.
