How the election work & Who are the candidates
Even though 3Chics Politico is written and curated by three women: Ametia, Rikyrah, and SouthernGirl2, I must nominate this as one of the most engaging blogs I've found. Devoted to politics and culture, these three shine a light on contemporary life with humor and spirit.

I was Team Perez all the way, so I am happy.
Ya’ll sppose BPO had a say in Perez’s choice of DNC Deputy Chairman, HMMMM?
I hope so.
I was actually okay with either Perez or Ellison. Both are leaders and, after DWS, their respective candidacies show that the Democrats understand what will happen to them if they do not begin their re-invention.
PBO showed them how to win, how to build the new 21st century Democratic coalition and they thought they knew better. Well, after the trainwreck, it’s time for the best and the brightest and he is one of those.
I hope that Perez and Ellison can work together.
This MOFO. right here. This is why we can’t have nice things.

You know what, at this JUNCTURE, I don’t want to hear from Bernie Sanders. He is no ta DEMOCRAT.
So please, just go away, Bernie!

The win by Barack Obama’s labor secretary marked a defeat for many progressives, who had rallied behind Rep. Keith Ellison of Minnesota during a contentious party meeting in Atlanta.

agree with Boykin on bottom up, not top down.
I can’t get with Jehmu Greene, a FOX NEWS ANALYST
Oh I didn’t know that.

I don’t believe Keith Ellison can or will do that.
If he wins he’d better otherwise the Dem Party is going down the tube.
Good luck with this. There is so much resistance within Dem party.
Will have to root out Dems who have ties to Russia-Trump too.
WINK WINK
Pete Buttigieg, Mayor of Indiana is stepping aside!!
Yep!
He gave the most HEART-FELT SPEECH.
We need young blood like Pete Buttigieg. Makes you wonder why he was in the leading pack, huh?
