Ken Martin (politician) → Ken Martin – I think as new DNC chair, it is probably fair to say he is the primary topic. The other two Ken Martin pages, the sculptor and runner, are obscure stubs. Nohomersryan (talk) 18:21, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

• Support per rationale of Nohomersryan. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 19:01, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support. per Nohomersryan Groceryheist (talk) 19:05, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support – certainly most likely topic for the search. Aza24 (talk) 19:14, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support per above ~Malvoliox (talk | contribs) 19:33, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support Seems reasonable to suggest this is currently the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. We can still keep Kenneth Martin as a disambiguation page and have a "for other uses, see Kenneth Martin" at the top of the page, since it seems like the only other person of this name whose article isn't a tiny stub is Kenneth Martin (English painter) — a Kenneth, not a Ken.  Vanilla  Wizard 💙 20:04, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support more likely search term and more notable among others. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 21:31, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support - clear PRIMARYTOPIC at this point. Paul Vaurie (talk) 22:33, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support as WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, he is now DNC chair and will be in charge of electing Democrats going forward. HarukaAmaranth 01:33, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support given he's now the DNC chair, with by far the most notability. JohnAdams1800 (talk) 03:33, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support per nom and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 03:56, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support Aside from above reasons, pageviews show that articles on DNC chairs (even pre-2000 ones) are generally far more popular than these stubs of the sculptor and runner Ken Martin. A hatnote to the disambig page should suffice. ViridianPenguin 🐧 ( 💬 ) 16:40, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
• Support. He's the primary topic. TheSavageNorwegian 21:50, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

What are our plans for 2025

Talk pages are not a forum

The DNC statement is about everything that has already happened and it’s about all the things. Trump is doing wrong. I want to know why our plans are better than Trump‘s. You should publish them on the DNC website because people are looking for answers and it’s really not very well updated or maintained. Crooked 25 (talk) 20:01, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

Is there something specific you'd like added to Ken Martin's biography? That's what this talk page is for. I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about. TheSavageNorwegian 21:43, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

DNC: You’ve got asking me for money down pat; but I don’t think you are doing enough, for all your “saber rattling”. I have yet to get any request or opportunity to have any direct input to any Democrat of note, State or Federal, except for your incessant demand for money. Some of us would like to help but simply can’t, for many reasons, contribute financially.

I just don’t think you are as tough as the MAGA Republicans.

Confrontation with David Hogg

Should we add a mention of Martin's 2025 confrontation with David Hogg? 98.123.38.212 (talk) 03:48, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

Yes. We should. Though it is an ongoing news story. TerraTorment (talk) 12:52, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
