Instead of ignoring these uncomfortable truths, he engages in the honest, difficult conversations necessary for real progress.

I first heard Kendall speak at the Democratic State Convention in Dallas, and his message inspired me to become more involved in our party. When I made the decision to run for Mayor, Kendall was the very first person to endorse me—a moment I will never forget. As the first African American mayor elected in my city, I know firsthand the importance of leadership that is accessible, supportive, and committed. Kendall has always been just that. I can reach out to him at any time, and he always responds. He has consistently provided me with resources and guidance to help me serve my community at the highest level. Kendall has a rare ability to energize and grow our party. He motivates people—especially young voters—to get engaged and make their voices heard. I have seen individuals who had never voted before step up to the ballot box because of his influence and encouragement. There is no one I trust more to continue building a stronger, more inclusive Democratic Party in Texas. I give Kendall Scudder my full and unwavering endorsement for Democratic State Chair. Ain’t no stopping us now with Kendall Scudder leading the way.— Mayor Nicole Mason-Driver"

"About seven years ago, I was helping plan a Texas College Democrats convention in Nacogdoches and almost every Democrat we asked to speak turned us down...besides Kendall. He didn’t hesitate to drive all the way out to talk to a very small group of dedicated young people fighting to make our state a better place. That kind of kindness and genuine commitment to people, especially when the room is small, is the heart this party needs."

John S.

Collin County Democratic Precinct Chair 62

75023

"Twelve months ago, the Texas Democratic Party faced a debt burden approaching half a million dollars and serious doubts about its electoral viability. The picture looks very different now. That debt has been wiped out. Democrats are fielding candidates across every state and federal contest. A coordinated $30 million campaign is being assembled. These represent genuine, substantive progress, not symbolic gestures, in the party’s finances, competitiveness, and strategic vision. I’m firmly behind the direction Chair Kendall Scudder has set and the ongoing reforms aimed at building a more capable Texas Democratic Party. Equally significant is what’s driving these results: structural reforms that were long overdue. Shifting from a centralized, top-down organization to one that is decentralized and locally rooted is difficult work, but it’s exactly what a state as large and varied as Texas demands. Expanding field operations, establishing local offices, and building grassroots capacity don’t produce overnight results, implementation takes time, and the full payoff takes even longer. What’s happening now represents the early, necessary foundation of a transformation that should have begun years ago. Compared to a year ago, the Texas Democratic Party is on steadier financial ground, more competitive electorally, and better prepared for what lies ahead. That is why I fully support Kendall Scudder for re-election as Texas Democratic Party Chair, because these efforts deserve continued leadership, and the time required to deliver lasting results."

David W.

Archer County Democratic Party Chair/WAC Young Democrats President

Age 31 · 76310

"I first met Kendall in Wichita Falls, TX in July 2025. I was new to Texas and it was shortly after he had become the state chair. Himself and the Wichita County chair worked to confirm if Archer county had chair or not. After a few months it was confirmed Archer County did not have a chair. I became the chair in November 2025. In the meantime I organized a local young Democrats organization between Wichita, Archer, and Clay counties. And we have an amazing state house candidate and an amazing US Congressional candidate in our area. And Kendall and his team has been able to recruit an amazing slate of Democrats to run up and down the ballot in November! Join this rural county chair in re-electing Kendall Scudder as Texas Democratic Party State Chair!"

"When disgruntled people pull a trick like trying to knock a successful leader out of his/her position, one has to wonder where that REALLY came from. I’m still mourning the shooting murder of Arkansas Party Chair Bill Gwatney who was working miracles with the Party. Kendall, you have 100% of my trust and support! While you have been at the helm, this is the first time I have felt deeply hopeful for Texas Democrats! You, sir, are the right person at the right time to chair the Texas Democratic Party!"

Nancy N.

Under Chair Scudder, there has been a significant increase in support and accessibility from TDP. I’m glad to see he’s running for reelection, and I fully support him."

The changes made so far have been hard, not pretty, and disruptive but have proven effective overall. Perfect? No. But positive change never is. The Party is better now with Kendall at the helm and executing. Especially based on the state the Party was in when he was elected last year. And the excitement within the party currently as a winner cannot be denied. Kendall led that change. Not just at the top. But down to county level grass roots where it really counts.

"Kendall Scudder got into politics because he watched his parents spend their lives in service to others. He understood from an early age that leadership isn’t a title, it’s a commitment. While still a teenager, he was working Dairy Queen shifts to help his family make ends meet and organizing to protect his LGBTQ+ loved ones from politicians who weaponized their existence for votes. He earned his Political Science degree from Sam Houston State, built a career in affordable housing and real estate, and took that real-world knowledge straight into the fight. As a county-wide elected Director of the Dallas Central Appraisal District, he voted to put money back in taxpayers’ pockets. As Finance Chairman of the Texas Democratic Party, he brought long-overdue transparency to the organization. And when Ken Paxton tried to strip Dallas County voters of their rights during a pandemic, Kendall filed a criminal complaint against him. Kendall doesn’t theorize about fighting back. He does it. That’s exactly why Kendall Scudder needs to be the next Chair of the Texas Democratic Party. At 35, he is one of the youngest leaders of a major political party in this country, and Texas Democrats don’t need a caretaker right now. They need a builder. Someone who understands working families not as a talking point, but as his own origin story. Someone who has already proven he can run organizations, hold the line under pressure, and show up for his community in ways that go far beyond campaign season, from the Dallas Civil Service Board to Volunteer In-Patrol with Dallas PD. The road to a stronger Texas runs through an organized, energized, and unapologetic Democratic Party, and Kendall Scudder has the spine, the strategy, and the soul to lead it there. Texas is worth fighting for. So is he."

I trust these people who I have (and would again in the future) jumped headlong into many a good fight with, these are folks who put in the work year round. There are more Democrats on the November ballot statewide than ever before, he eliminated a debt of half a million dollars that he inherited and Democrats just saw a massive primary turnout that outpaced Republicans for the first time in decades. Personally from my time working polls, block walking and phone banking I've never seen anyone work harder, or care more about his fellow Democrats than Kendall."

We voted for change, for energy, for more organizing. For too long rural communities were ignored, the Hispanic community was taken for granted, and the LGBTQ community was thrown to the wolves. Now we are united under one leader who has traveled all over the state visiting and communicating with anyone who asked, no matter how small the group.

He had to restructure the entire organization in order to bring TDP into the 21st Century. As a County Chair, I have seen the way Chairman Scudder has improved the relationship between TDP and County Chairs. He has created a team who work closely with and support County Chairs. This is something we didn’t have from the previous administration. Thank you Chairman Scudder for making the Texas Democratic Party great again!"

Jeremy S.

Collin County Democratic Party Chair

Age 51 · 75070

"We knew the Texas Democratic Party needed a new direction after the devastating losses of 2024. The party was in debt, and Democrats across the state were disheartened and ready for a change. We got that change when we elected Kendall Scudder as our State Chair. Today, I want to tell you why I am proudly and enthusiastically endorsing Kendall Scudder for reelection as Chair of the Texas Democratic Party. He fixed the finances. When Scudder took over, the party was deep in debt. In just a few short months, he did something that seemed impossible: he quietly erased the party's debt. By September 2025, the Texas Democratic Party announced it was officially debt-free. In the world of party politics, where financial struggles are often the norm, this is an extraordinary achievement. It means we are stable, we are responsible, and we are ready to invest in winning. He decentralized and modernized the party. Scudder understood that winning Texas requires meeting people where they are. He made the bold decision to move the party headquarters from the Austin political bubble to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, home to 8.5 million Texans. He's opened new organizing offices in Houston, Amarillo, and Eagle Pass. This isn't just about changing a mailing address; it's about building a statewide, modern, and agile party that can organize in every corner of Texas, from the suburbs of Collin County to the rural Panhandle. He is building an army, not just an office. He returned to our progressive roots. Kendall Scudder is not afraid to say what he believes. He wants to take the party back to its roots in East Texas working-class values. He rails against billionaires and fights for the "little guy". He’s the son of a paramedic and a corrections officer who taught him the values of service to others. He knows that to win, we have to champion a clear economic populist message: we are the party that will stand up to corporate greed, fully fund our public schools, and keep taxes low for working families, not the ultra-wealthy. That is a message we can all get behind. He is leading us to victory. Finally, and most importantly, Scudder's leadership is delivering results. The energy and enthusiasm among Texas Democrats are undeniable. In the March 2026 primary, we set new turnout records, with nearly one in four registered voters casting a ballot. Democratic turnout more than doubled compared to recent primaries, with over 2.3 million votes cast. For the first time in a midterm cycle, more Texans voted in the Democratic primary than in the Republican primary. And we are winning. Under his watch, we shocked the nation when Taylor Rehmet flipped a Texas State Senate seat blue for the first time since 1992—in a district Donald Trump won by 17 points. That win sent shockwaves across the country and is a clear testament to the new energy and organization Scudder is building. He has gotten us out of debt, modernized our party, championed our progressive values, and produced a track record of winning. We have the right leader for this moment. I'm proud to stand with Kendall Scudder to build a Texas that works for all of us. Jeremy Sutka Chair, Collin County Democratic Party"

Change is hard, but it’s also necessary. We don’t need perfect, we need someone like Kendall who understands what it takes to win in a big, diverse state such as Texas.

"Kendall Scudder supports a 254 county strategy of filling every county chair and every precinct chair in Texas, so democrats turn out in record margins for every election. He helped secure funding to make sure we could run democratic races in every state wide office, federal office and even local county races. He believes in turning out democrats in higher margins each election no matter how red or how blue a precinct, city, or county is. In one year Kendall has gotten the party out of debt and supported democratic candidates in every race and that resulted in record turnout of general election voters in the primary. I support Kendall because I want to win elections."

When I made the decision to run for Mayor, Kendall was the very first person to endorse me—a moment I will never forget. As the first African American mayor elected in my city, I know firsthand the importance of leadership that is accessible, supportive, and committed. Kendall has always been just that. I can reach out to him at any time, and he always responds. He has consistently provided me with resources and guidance to help me serve my community at the highest level. Kendall has a rare ability to energize and grow our party. He motivates people—especially young voters—to get engaged and make their voices heard. I have seen individuals who had never voted before step up to the ballot box because of his influence and encouragement. There is no one I trust more to continue building a stronger, more inclusive Democratic Party in Texas. I give Kendall Scudder my full and unwavering endorsement for Democratic State Chair. Ain’t no stopping us now with Kendall Scudder leading the way.— Mayor Nicole Mason-Driver"

75023

"Twelve months ago, the Texas Democratic Party faced a debt burden approaching half a million dollars and serious doubts about its electoral viability. The picture looks very different now. That debt has been wiped out. Democrats are fielding candidates across every state and federal contest. A coordinated $30 million campaign is being assembled. These represent genuine, substantive progress, not symbolic gestures, in the party’s finances, competitiveness, and strategic vision. I’m firmly behind the direction Chair Kendall Scudder has set and the ongoing reforms aimed at building a more capable Texas Democratic Party. Equally significant is what’s driving these results: structural reforms that were long overdue. Shifting from a centralized, top-down organization to one that is decentralized and locally rooted is difficult work, but it’s exactly what a state as large and varied as Texas demands. Expanding field operations, establishing local offices, and building grassroots capacity don’t produce overnight results, implementation takes time, and the full payoff takes even longer. What’s happening now represents the early, necessary foundation of a transformation that should have begun years ago. Compared to a year ago, the Texas Democratic Party is on steadier financial ground, more competitive electorally, and better prepared for what lies ahead. That is why I fully support Kendall Scudder for re-election as Texas Democratic Party Chair, because these efforts deserve continued leadership, and the time required to deliver lasting results."

Age 31 · 76310

Himself and the Wichita County chair worked to confirm if Archer county had chair or not. After a few months it was confirmed Archer County did not have a chair. I became the chair in November 2025. In the meantime I organized a local young Democrats organization between Wichita, Archer, and Clay counties. And we have an amazing state house candidate and an amazing US Congressional candidate in our area. And Kendall and his team has been able to recruit an amazing slate of Democrats to run up and down the ballot in November! Join this rural county chair in re-electing Kendall Scudder as Texas Democratic Party State Chair!"

The Party is better now with Kendall at the helm and executing. Especially based on the state the Party was in when he was elected last year. And the excitement within the party currently as a winner cannot be denied. Kendall led that change. Not just at the top. But down to county level grass roots where it really counts.

"Kendall Scudder got into politics because he watched his parents spend their lives in service to others. He understood from an early age that leadership isn’t a title, it’s a commitment. While still a teenager, he was working Dairy Queen shifts to help his family make ends meet and organizing to protect his LGBTQ+ loved ones from politicians who weaponized their existence for votes. He earned his Political Science degree from Sam Houston State, built a career in affordable housing and real estate, and took that real-world knowledge straight into the fight. As a county-wide elected Director of the Dallas Central Appraisal District, he voted to put money back in taxpayers’ pockets. As Finance Chairman of the Texas Democratic Party, he brought long-overdue transparency to the organization. And when Ken Paxton tried to strip Dallas County voters of their rights during a pandemic, Kendall filed a criminal complaint against him. Kendall doesn’t theorize about fighting back. He does it. That’s exactly why Kendall Scudder needs to be the next Chair of the Texas Democratic Party. At 35, he is one of the youngest leaders of a major political party in this country, and Texas Democrats don’t need a caretaker right now. They need a builder. Someone who understands working families not as a talking point, but as his own origin story. Someone who has already proven he can run organizations, hold the line under pressure, and show up for his community in ways that go far beyond campaign season, from the Dallas Civil Service Board to Volunteer In-Patrol with Dallas PD. The road to a stronger Texas runs through an organized, energized, and unapologetic Democratic Party, and Kendall Scudder has the spine, the strategy, and the soul to lead it there. Texas is worth fighting for. So is he."

I trust these people who I have (and would again in the future) jumped headlong into many a good fight with, these are folks who put in the work year round. There are more Democrats on the November ballot statewide than ever before, he eliminated a debt of half a million dollars that he inherited and Democrats just saw a massive primary turnout that outpaced Republicans for the first time in decades. Personally from my time working polls, block walking and phone banking I've never seen anyone work harder, or care more about his fellow Democrats than Kendall."

Now we are united under one leader who has traveled all over the state visiting and communicating with anyone who asked, no matter how small the group.

He had to restructure the entire organization in order to bring TDP into the 21st Century. As a County Chair, I have seen the way Chairman Scudder has improved the relationship between TDP and County Chairs. He has created a team who work closely with and support County Chairs. This is something we didn’t have from the previous administration. Thank you Chairman Scudder for making the Texas Democratic Party great again!"

Jeremy S.

Collin County Democratic Party Chair

Age 51 · 75070

"We knew the Texas Democratic Party needed a new direction after the devastating losses of 2024. The party was in debt, and Democrats across the state were disheartened and ready for a change. We got that change when we elected Kendall Scudder as our State Chair. Today, I want to tell you why I am proudly and enthusiastically endorsing Kendall Scudder for reelection as Chair of the Texas Democratic Party. He fixed the finances. When Scudder took over, the party was deep in debt. In just a few short months, he did something that seemed impossible: he quietly erased the party's debt. By September 2025, the Texas Democratic Party announced it was officially debt-free. In the world of party politics, where financial struggles are often the norm, this is an extraordinary achievement. It means we are stable, we are responsible, and we are ready to invest in winning. He decentralized and modernized the party. Scudder understood that winning Texas requires meeting people where they are. He made the bold decision to move the party headquarters from the Austin political bubble to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, home to 8.5 million Texans. He's opened new organizing offices in Houston, Amarillo, and Eagle Pass. This isn't just about changing a mailing address; it's about building a statewide, modern, and agile party that can organize in every corner of Texas, from the suburbs of Collin County to the rural Panhandle. He is building an army, not just an office. He returned to our progressive roots. Kendall Scudder is not afraid to say what he believes. He wants to take the party back to its roots in East Texas working-class values. He rails against billionaires and fights for the "little guy". He’s the son of a paramedic and a corrections officer who taught him the values of service to others. He knows that to win, we have to champion a clear economic populist message: we are the party that will stand up to corporate greed, fully fund our public schools, and keep taxes low for working families, not the ultra-wealthy. That is a message we can all get behind. He is leading us to victory. Finally, and most importantly, Scudder's leadership is delivering results. The energy and enthusiasm among Texas Democrats are undeniable. In the March 2026 primary, we set new turnout records, with nearly one in four registered voters casting a ballot. Democratic turnout more than doubled compared to recent primaries, with over 2.3 million votes cast. For the first time in a midterm cycle, more Texans voted in the Democratic primary than in the Republican primary. And we are winning. Under his watch, we shocked the nation when Taylor Rehmet flipped a Texas State Senate seat blue for the first time since 1992—in a district Donald Trump won by 17 points. That win sent shockwaves across the country and is a clear testament to the new energy and organization Scudder is building. He has gotten us out of debt, modernized our party, championed our progressive values, and produced a track record of winning. We have the right leader for this moment. I'm proud to stand with Kendall Scudder to build a Texas that works for all of us. Jeremy Sutka Chair, Collin County Democratic Party"

Change is hard, but it’s also necessary. We don’t need perfect, we need someone like Kendall who understands what it takes to win in a big, diverse state such as Texas.

"Kendall Scudder supports a 254 county strategy of filling every county chair and every precinct chair in Texas, so democrats turn out in record margins for every election. He helped secure funding to make sure we could run democratic races in every state wide office, federal office and even local county races. He believes in turning out democrats in higher margins each election no matter how red or how blue a precinct, city, or county is. In one year Kendall has gotten the party out of debt and supported democratic candidates in every race and that resulted in record turnout of general election voters in the primary. I support Kendall because I want to win elections."

From getting the state party out of debt, finding candidates to run in every race in Texas and traveling to meet and work with chairs and candidates in every county in Texas, he has my confidence and my vote. Let’s turn Texas blue!!"
