DNC Announces Strategy: “Organize Everywhere, Win Anywhere”

Democrats will reportedly be flooding resources into Democratic state parties and to Republican-controlled states as Democrats continue to grapple with losing the November election. 

On Thursday, Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Ken Martin and Association of State Democratic Chairs (ASDC) President Jane Kleeb announced the revisit of a previously used strategy to “organize everywhere, win anywhere.”

The four-year agreement allows the delivery of more resources to Democratic state and territory parties. 

The baseline for the resources is $17,500 monthly. This is a $5,000 per month increase over the last agreement.

Republican-controlled states will receive an additional investment of $5,000 monthly through the DNC’s Red State Fund. 

According to a recent press release, the $1 million commitment from the DNC to Democratic state parties will allow them to invest in critical infrastructure and staffing. They will also be able to strengthen their data and tech operations while building on-the-ground programs and prepare for upcoming elections. 

Martin said, “With this announcement, we are breaking ground on a historic political investment unlike anything Democrats have done in modern times. Elections are won in states – and that’s exactly where we will be investing our resources. When I ran for DNC Chair, I said two things over and over. First, we have to get the DNC out of DC and into the states. Second, we have to organize everywhere and compete everywhere if we’re going to win everywhere. This agreement is how we start turning those beliefs into reality.”

Kleeb said, “When I ran to be the President of the ASDC, I knew the mission was clear: Democrats needed to rebuild infrastructure in the states and provide our state parties with the resources necessary to win. This historic agreement allows us to do just that: building infrastructure to expand Democratic power across our states and territories, be it in red, blue, or purple America.”

The strategy revisits that of 2006 and 2008, during which a 50-state strategy led to a decisive victory for Democrats during those elections, according to the party.
