Democrats to vote in June on whether to redo election of David Hogg as DNC vice chair

The Democratic National Committee will vote in June on whether to hold a redo of the election of David Hogg and Pennsylvania state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta as vice chairs, per a Thursday evening DNC meeting.Why it matters: Kalyn Free, a losing candidate in February's vice chair race, claims the pair was elected under a flawed tabulation process, but Hogg alleges it's linked to his efforts to reform the party that include plans to spend $20 million to primary older Democratic Congress members. Driving the news: The DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee at a virtual meeting determined that a vote should be held electronically from June 9-11.Hogg said at the meeting the move "sends a horrible message to the public about our inability to run elections."If Democrats were to redo this election, "it truly just sends a horrible message that we really do not want out there at the at this moment," he said. "That's why I believe that it should not go forward, and if it does, it does, it should not be done electronically or over mail."Kenyatta said at the meeting that he "fundamentally" believes that the election was fair.What's next: If most DNC members vote to redo the election, there will be an electronic vote for a male vice chair on June 12-14 and an any gender vote for a second vice chair, according to a timeline shared at the meeting.Go deeper: House Democrats fume at David Hogg's plan to oust lawmakersEditor's note: Axios' Andrew Solender contributed reporting.
