    Same in Pittsburgh. The DNC backed the incumbent who was so conservative he ran on the Republican ticket when he was successfully primaried off the Democratic ticket by a progressive. The progressive won the general election too, but the DNC sure want happy about it.

      The DNC doesn’t have any involvement in local candidates, they’re only concerned about the presidency. You probably mean the DCCC if you’re talking about a house rep. DNC is not short for the Democratic party, it’s a specific committee.
