Democratic presidential contenders plan to meet in Denver after the midterm elections to discuss the party’s future direction. Attendees include Pete Buttigieg, Rahm Emanuel, and several senators like Ruben Gallego and Raphael Warnock. Representatives from Majority Democrats emphasize that this is not a policy conference but an opportunity for potential candidates to present their vision for the Democratic Party. The timing of the meeting will be influenced by the results of the November midterms, which could alter President Trump’s influence over Capitol Hill in his final two years in office.
