Democratic autopsy flags gaps, Harris boxed-in, and a rural-voter outreach rethink

The DNC’s 192-page post‑election autopsy, released with a disclaimer about sourcing, highlights four takeaways: the report is not comprehensive and omits key factors (like Biden’s decision to run and Gaza/Israel issues); Kamala Harris was not properly positioned to lead; Trump wasn’t subjected to enough negative campaigning by Democrats; and the party needs a major rethink of outreach to rural and Latino voters, focusing on economic messaging and direct engagement. The leadership also questions the sourcing and completeness of the findings.
