It was a big night for candidates backed by the Democratic Socialists of America. In Florida, DSA candidate Angie Nixon nearly defeated incumbent Republican Senator Ashley Moody, even though Nixon was vastly outspent and only received support from national Democratic leaders in the waning days of the race. Here in New York City, two DSA-backed candidates, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Claire Valdez, won congressional seats along with former City Comptroller Brad Lander. All three were endorsed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani in their competitive primary races.
