Bill Freeman, Tennessee Democrats’ top fundraiser and a possible candidate for governor in 2018, is calling for the state Democratic Party to bring in a new party chair to replace Mary Mancini following last week’s loss at the polls. “After a loss like this, I think we’ve got to look at every option, including a new chair,” Freeman told the Tennessean. Mancini has served as state party chair for the past two years after replacing former chairman Roy Herron. Her term expires in January and she has confirmed plans to seek another term.
