The Democratic Socialist Candidates to Watch on November 3

The Democratic Socialists of America are going to take some seats on Tuesday.

Democratic socialism, an ideology once thought to only manifest in America when channeled through Bernie Sanders, is appearing in force across the nation. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are endorsing 131 candidates in the November 3 elections.. In the Los Angeles mayoral race, DSA gives their nod to socialist Nithya Raman in a tight race against incumbent Democrat Karen Bass. With some DSA members and endorsed candidates already in office, here are the movement’s electoral highlights heading into Tuesday:

New York City Mayor: Mamdani beats Cuomo.

NYC choosing Mamdani felt like a generational shift. A Democratic socialist defeated a Clinton-era establishment Democrat in the biggest mayoral race in the country. That momentum appears to have spread nationally.

Seattle Mayor: Wilson wins tight race over Harrell.

Last November, democratic socialist Katie Wilson squeaked by incumbent Bruce Harrell for the mayorship.

Washington D.C. Mayor: Lewis George set to win.

Janeese Lewis George won the Democratic primary for Washington D.C. mayor as a democratic socialist and is essentially a lock to win the general election.

Providence Mayor: Morales huge favorite for Tuesday.

Twenty-seven-year-old democratic socialist David Morales defeated incumbent Mayor Brett Smiley in the Democratic primary. Morales is now set to win a landslide over Republican Dave Talan on November 3.

Several congressional seats could also go to DSA-backed candidates:

New York: Chevalier and Valdez win Dem nominations.

DSA likely to take 2 new seats in New York. Claire Valdez has been a New York Assembly member for just two years. Darializa Avila Chevalier is in her early 30s and has never held public office. Both will likely be U.S. congresswomen come January.

Colorado: Kiros unseats DeGette in primary.

After defeating the establishment Democrat Diana DeGette in the primary, lawyer Melat Kiros is a shoo-in to represent Colorado’s first district. She has also never held public office. Kiros is just 29.

Michigan: McKinney unseats Thanedar in primary.

Michigan's Donavan McKinney also unseated incumbent Rep. Shri Thanedar in a Democratic primary. He’s primed to win on Tuesday.

And in the Senate, DSA member Angie Nixon defeated former national security official Alex Vindman in the Democratic primary, though she will likely lose in the general election to Republican Sen. Ashley Moody.

The DSA endorsed candidates on the November 3 ballot across 30 states and D.C., including 10 congressional, 52 state legislative, and 69 local candidates.

The movement has broken out of major cities. Socialism is a regular electoral force in America.

Los Angeles will be a major test. Results on Tuesday.
