The DNC doesn't control state elections, the local democratic parties do. It is up to the state parties to run their primary (or caucus) as they choose. The DNC can influence primaries with spending, but they don't make the rules for state-levrl primaries.

At the presidential level, yes the DNC has been terrible with candidates. However they aren't in charge of the other races. They can give money, but they can't stop Socialists and other leftists running in primaries and winning them or general elections from school board to senator and everything in between. They can make it harder for these people to win, but they can't stop or control city, county, or state elections. We need a base of elected officials pushing them to change their tack.
Not in Minnesota https://dfl.org/about/ the party is independent, I think it's the same in other states. The way the DNC can influence elections in primaries is with endorsements and ad support.
