And while the issues aren’t related, there are parallels because both touch on race and diversity. ADVERTISEMENT This week in Charleston, the top Democrats from the state House and Senate held an in-person meeting with the chair of the state party over whether she is actively pursuing a mandate from the Democratic National Committee pertaining to race and representation.

He said the conversation was to lay out a range of concerns over how to “do better as a party” to expand diversity among the top ranks. The leaders stopped short of calling for her to step down.
