Chair Barnes joined a panel of Black women battleground state party chairs to highlight stakes of the election
LANSING — In case you missed it, last night, Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes joined CNN’s Abby Phillips along with fellow state party Chairs Monroe-Moreno, Williams, and Spain ahead of the Democratic National Convention. These women spoke about the energy around Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign, the feeling on the ground in key states, and the stark contrast between the future she offers and the future Donald Trump offers.
Along with the other three Black women state party chairs, Chair Barnes emphasized the Democrats’ winning ticket against Trump and Vance saying, “Vice President Harris and our vice presidential nominee-to-be, Tim Walz, are going to clean up this team from the Republican side.”
As Democrats prepare to make history this week, these incredible Black women are leading the charge in every corner of the country, in some of the most crucial states this election cycle. That leadership will make all the difference in November, and Michiganders are already fired up and ready to beat Donald Trump and elect Vice President Kamala Harris.
