The credentials committee of the DNC voted in favor of a resolution voiding the election that made David Hogg and Malcolm Kenyatta vice chairs.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has taken a first step toward possibly requiring a new election for two of its vice chairs, including David Hogg, who has stirred controversy with his call for primary challenges to longtime incumbents in safe seats.

Committee’s vote starts a process that could lead to activist’s ouster from leadership role amid backlash to his plans to support primary challengers to House Democrats.
