Democrats Are Once Again Being Accused of Rigging Elections — by Other Democrats

For a few years now, Democrats haven’t been able to go a single election without declaring, “Democracy is on the ballot,” or something like that. Yet, once again, Democrats are being accused of being anti-democratic.

A coalition of Democratic outsider candidates went public this week with a blistering joint statement accusing the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee of putting its thumb on the scale six months before primary voters get a say. The issue is the DCCC’s decision to announce its first round of “Red to Blue” candidates for 2026, endorsing fundraising frontrunners in competitive House districts including VA-01, WI-03, and NC-11.

The DCCC says its “Red to Blue” program is a battle-tested system that funnels organizational and fundraising muscle toward candidates who’ve hit aggressive grassroots benchmarks. “These are all strong candidates. They’re the ones who are going to be the general election candidate, and they’re the ones that we think can win the general election,” DCCC Chair Rep. Suzan DelBene explained.

But we all know what that really means. The party brass in Washington, D.C., has decided who the candidates should be. Game over. Thanks for playing. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Better luck next time.

The 17 candidates pushing back aren’t buying it.

“This is exactly what we as Democrats have been complaining about for years,” Jason Knapp, a candidate in Virginia’s 1st Congressional district, said. “And we’re just doing it again.”
