Barret’s been a Democrat her whole life. She said the Nebraska Democratic Party's recent resolution didn't sit right.
It accuses Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine of perpetuating white supremacy in his handling of the James Scurlock case.
"I kept getting more desperately unhappy about it. And I just didn’t think it was a place the Nebraska Democratic Party needed to attack an individual, especially one who’s not running for office,” Barrett said.
Barret campaigned alongside the NDP for decades. She fundraised for candidates and traveled to national conventions.
