Scoop: Dems working on secret report found Gaza cost Harris votes (www.axios.com)

Top Democratic officials who worked on the party's still-secret autopsy of the 2024 election concluded that Kamala Harris lost significant support because of the Biden administration's approach to the war in Gaza, Axios has learned.

The Democratic National Committee's research on what went wrong in 2024 has been under lock and key since party leaders decided last year to hide it from the public — a reflection of how explosively it could resonate within the party and beyond.

Axios independently verified that Democratic officials conducting the autopsy believed the issue harmed the party's standing with some voters.

The IMEU Policy Project is now accusing the DNC of withholding its report in part because of its findings on Israel.

I don't think anyone paying attention would suggest it had no impact. In isolation it wasn't big enough to have swung the election in a single state, but it might still be significant enough to be concerning to the DNC.
