Cleveland (CNN) The final weekend of campaigning for the primary in Ohio's 11th Congressional District brought to life the divisions that still exist deep inside the Democratic Party, despite broader signs of unity during the first six months of the Biden administration. "My job would not be to parrot any administration, whether it's a Democratic administration or a Republican administration. "I am going to applaud the Biden administration, when they're moving in the right direction," Turner said. Shortly after Clinton won the primary that year, Turner said, "I'm a lifelong Democrat and I take great pride in that," but added, "Really, it's the values of the Democratic Party I'm fighting for, so I am a dedicated dissenter within the Democratic Party." (She turned down an invitation to be Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein's running mate.)
