DNC Congratulates Democratic Nominee Zach Dembo on His Victory in the Kentucky Democratic Congressional District 6 Primary Arrow

The DNC congratulates Zach Dembo for winning the Democratic primary for Kentucky's 6th Congressional District.

While Republican politicians continue to hemorrhage support as their deeply unpopular policies raise costs on Kentucky families, Dembo is ready to deliver for Kentuckians and flip this seat. The DNC is all-in to support Dembo, who ran on an agenda to protect healthcare, lower costs, and build a more affordable Kentucky. This year, Democrats are seizing the opportunity to flip Kentucky's 6th Congressional District blue and take back the majority in the House of Representatives.

In response to Dembo's victory, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:

"Zach Dembo has dedicated his entire career to public service, from his tenure as a Navy JAG officer to protecting our communities as a federal prosecutor. In Congress, Dembo will help put a stop to Republicans' toxic agenda of higher costs, chaos, and corruption that continues to wreak havoc in Kentucky. Democrats have strong momentum going into November, and the DNC will organize and mobilize voters to elect Zach Dembo and ensure Kentucky's 6th Congressional District has a leader who will stand up for them."
