After months of treating its 2024 election autopsy like the Ark of the Covenant, the Democratic National Committee has finally released the document, only for it to emerge as a 192-page error-strewn bundle that reportedly omits interviews with Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and senior campaign officials, which is one approach to forensic analysis.
"For full transparency, I am releasing the report as we received it, in its entirety, unedited and unabridged. It does not meet my standards, and it won't meet your standards, but I am doing this because people need to be able to trust the Democratic Party and trust our word," he wrote in a statement.
But the actual document is a puzzling 192-page compilation made by Martin ally and Democratic strategist Paul Rivera. The report avoids conclusions about party strategy during the election and omits references to key issues, like former President Joe Biden's initial decision to run for reelection and controversy over his stance on the Israel-Hamas war.
Rivera neglected to interview Harris, Biden, and senior campaign operatives. Also, the report contains many basic factual errors and is annotated with remarks from the DNC distancing itself from the report's assertions.
