## Summary

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear said replacing Democratic National Committee chair Ken Martin before the midterm elections would create unnecessary risk for the party. He argued that changing leadership during a crucial election period could disrupt Democratic organising and campaign planning.

The available text does not provide further details of Beshear’s comments, the reasons any leadership change is being considered, or a timetable. The article page itself was inaccessible, so the summary is limited to the headline’s reported claim and should not be read as a full account of the dispute.
