Monica Alcántara has chaired the Bexar County Democratic Party since 2018. She submitted a letter of resignation on Thursday.

The executive director of the Mecklenburg Democratic Party, Monifa Drayton, resigned on Wednesday, accusing the party of discriminating against her because of her race and gender. Drayton wrote in a letter obtained by WFAE that it was “humiliating” when the county party stripped her of her full executive director responsibilities and had her only work with minority communities.
