Democratic socialists gain ground in mayoral races
A new wave of democratic socialist candidates is gaining prominence in major U.S. city mayoral races, including Washington, D.C., New York, Seattle, and Los Angeles. In Washington, D.C., candidate Janeese Lewis George’s left-wing platform emphasizes expanding public services, reducing crime, and confronting federal policies, positioning her to become the city's next mayor. These candidates, mostly members of the Democratic Socialists of America, reflect a broader shift driven by anti-Trump sentiment and increasing support for economic populism, challenging decades of centrist governance in urban areas.
