Perhaps one of our resident Alabama Democrats can unravel this one for us. Here are the lead paragraphs from a much longer story.
U.S. Sen. Doug Jones on Thursday accused Alabama Democratic Party leaders of making the state party “nonfunctional” and said they were hollowing out the organization.
Jones, who backed an effort to replace Alabama Democratic Party chair Nancy Worley at an August 2018 meeting of the State Democratic Executive Committee (SDEC), dismissed Worley’s accusations earlier this week that he was working with DNC Chair Tom Perez as part of an “all-out attack” on the state party.
Note Jone’s comments that the party needs to “be more inclusive.” As I recall, it was black female voters who put Jones in the Senate over Roy Moore. Is the Alabama Democratic Party not working to keep these voters and recognizing them by putting them in leadership positions?
Jones said on Thursday the state party failed in recruitment and support of Democratic Party candidates at the state level last year and said the party needed to be more inclusive.
