This is what some Progressive-Democratic Party candidates for office, some of whom have won their primaries and others of whom have significant leads in their primaries, are campaigning on. Keep in mind that party primaries are where party voters choose who they want to represent them.
Darializa Avila Chevalier Progressive-Democratic Party’s choice for a US Congressional seat from New York:
- government ownership of the means of production
- prison abolitionist
- police abolitionist
- proud of wiping her dirty hands on the American flag
- open celebrant of Hamas butchery
Francesca Hong, Progressive-Democratic Party’s choice for Wisconsin’s Governor:
- abolish the Senate
- police exist to uphold white supremacy
- canceling Thanksgiving as a colonizer holiday
- canceling Halloween and Christmas just because
Christina Bohannan, Progressive-Democratic Party’s choice for a seat representing Iowa in the US Congress:
- patriotism is a sensitive and controversial subject
- 1619 Project is preferred history of the US
Party has selected or is close to selecting similarly disposed candidates in other States—viz., Angie Craig for US Senate and Ilhan Omar for US Congress in Minnesota, Pramila Jayapal for US Congress (again!)—and it already elected the dual-membershipped (DSA and Party) Zorhan Mamdami. That’s only so far in this election cycle.
This is what the Progressive-Democratic Party stands for, made explicit by its taking the Democratic Socialists of America into its bosom.
It’s true that Republicans picked Victor Marx as their candidate for Colorado governor, but he’s a clear exception to what the party stands for. Those others are typical of Party.
