Tom Perez on Fading Chances of Dem Blue Wave: ‘We Always Knew the Election Was Going To Be Close’

‘I don’t use the term blue wave’

EXCERPT:

PEREZ: “Listen, we always knew that this election was going to be close. I don’t use the term blue wave. I always talk about the need for the blocking and tackling. I always talk about the need for organizing, to make sure you are leading with your values, and that’s how we have been winning throughout this year and throughout 2017, is talking about those key issues that matter most. I still have a lot of confidence in the House. I know the Senate is a tougher map, but we have got great candidates. And then I look at these governor’s races and I see the work that is being done.”
