DNC Chair Ken Martin boasts ‘win after win,’ shrugs off massive Trump, Republican money lead
Are they actually going to vote on something real?
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — Democrats are spotlighting their "positive momentum" at the ballot box since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, as they work to win back House and Senate majorities in this year's midterm elections.
"We had a record of victories across the country over the last year," Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Ken Martin touted this weekend in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital. "We're winning up and down the ballot, big statewide elections, of course, and county races, local races, state legislative races, one after another."
Democrats are hoping for a blue wave similar to the one they rode in 2018, the last time they won back the House from the GOP, and they're energized. But Republicans are not sold on whether special elections are a good barometer of things to come in the midterms.
"Special elections are very strange because turnout is often stifled," House Speaker Mike Johnson told Fox News Digital late last year.
‘FICTION’ - HOUSE REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN CHAIR SCOFFS AT DEMOCRATS MOVE TO EXPAND GOP TARGET LIST
A stunning setback for Republicans two and a half weeks ago in a special state Senate election for a ruby-red district in Texas grabbed tons of national attention, and was seen by some in the GOP as a "wakeup call."
The Democrats' victory in Texas, and two more ballot box wins since then, were fueled in part by continued concerns by Americans over high prices, and came amid backlash over the Trump administration's unprecedented crackdown on illegal immigration and, as the latest polling indicates, the president remains mired in negative numbers.
Thanks in part to their laser focus on the issue of affordability amid persistent inflation, Democrats scored decisive victories in the 2025 elections, and have overperformed at the ballot box in other off-year and special elections since the start of Trump's second administration.
"There's certainly positive momentum for the Democratic Party. There's wind at our back. We're seeing win after win, and that's continued unabated into this new year," Martin emphasized.

The DNC chair was interviewed in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, as he made his way up to Maine this weekend to help organize local Democrats ahead of an upcoming special legislative election later this month.
Martin said he's anything but complacent, and is ignoring the latest national polling that indicates that Democrats hold a mid-single digit advantage over the Republicans in the battle for Congress.
