Even the vice chair race for the Democratic National Committee is becoming an endorsement contest.

Adam Parkhomenko, the co-founder and executive director of Ready for Hillary and later the field director for the DNC for the end of the 2016 cycle, is rolling out support from five state chairs.


“His passion for organizing and his commitment to the volunteers and grassroots activists who power our state parties ensures that every Democrat will have a voice at the DNC,” reads a joint statement from Massachusetts Democratic state chair Gus Bickford, Montana chair Jim Larson, Minnesota chair Ken Martin, Virginia chair Susan Swecker and Washington, D.C., chair Anita Bonds.

The election will be held Feb. 25 in Atlanta, along with the elections for the other party positions, including DNC chair. Only the 447 members of the DNC have votes.
