The Democratic National Committee‘s summer meeting kicked off Thursday in Texas with members rallying around embattled Chairman Ken Martin even as the party wrestles with financial problems and ideological divisions ahead of the midterm elections.

DNC members previously signaled to the Washington Examiner that there is little appetite to oust Martin before the midterm elections, despite calls from Democrats outside the committee for him to step down.
