Democrats have a new national party chairman and it's Tom Perez, who was labor secretary under President Barack Obama.
Over the weekend, the national Democratic chairman's race narrowed before party activists even cast ballots.
South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg was in the race, but told Democratic National Committee members Saturday that he did not have the votes and was removing his name from consideration.
Buttigieg had campaigned as an outsider promising "a fresh start." He had hoped neither Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison nor Perez could reach a majority, opening the door for another option. Buttigieg urged the party to "look outside Washington" to find its way back.
