Key Democrats Skip DNC for Campaigning

News summary

Several high-profile Democrats, including Senators Sherrod Brown, Jon Tester, and Jacky Rosen, are opting to skip the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, citing re-election campaign commitments in their home states. This move is seen as an attempt to distance themselves from Vice President Kamala Harris, who is set to be formally nominated as the Democratic presidential candidate. California will be the last state to cast its votes in the ceremonial roll call, honoring Harris as the nominee. Senator John Fetterman, not up for re-election, also plans to miss the convention to spend time with his family. The absence of these Democrats highlights the challenges the party faces in defending vulnerable Senate seats, particularly in states won by Donald Trump in previous elections. The Democratic Senate Campaign Committee chair acknowledged the importance of enthusiasm at the convention but understood the senators' choice to prioritize voter outreach.
