•Unseating the people in Congress is how we should measure the success of the revolution. That’s where laws are made. Winning a primary is a start. But you need to look more closely at the conditions of each election. •Who ran against the progressive? What color was the district? Who did the democrats support? What percent of voters participated? •As of 6/28 there was only one seat in Congress that was even mildly at risk (Crowley/Cortez. AOC won with 13% % turnout. “We looked deeply into how the candidates have been doing and the prospects they have in November. Some of the results of the analysis were very stark. This information is something the progressive movement should be aware of and consider it highly, as we think about what kind of strategic approach we are going to take to win elections, in terms of reforming the democratic party or creating a major new people’s party. This is something we need to share with the rest of the movement. It’s important to emphasize, after Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s recent victory, that she is the exception. The exception to the fact that the great majority of progressive candidates are being shot down. We looked at the congressional candidates that Our Revolution, Brand New Congress and Justice Democrats have endorsed so far, who have had their primaries. There are 53 candidates. Out of those 53, there were 21 who have won their primaries.That doesn’t sound so bad until you analyze what the districts are that they are winning in. All but 4 of those candidates have won in deep red districts.That is to say that, nearly all of the progressive candidates who are winning inside the democratic party, who have been endorsed by those organizations, are winning because they are uncontested by the democrats.These are districts that are so heavily and consistently red (they vote double digit republican every year), that the DNC writes them off and does not even run candidates in a lot of them.That is what makes up the large majority of wins (17 out of 21) for Congress. Out of the 4 remaining candidates, who are in democratic leaning districts, who are likely to win, 2 are already there as incumbents, Jamie Raskin (MD) and Ro Khanna (CA). One of them, Jesus Garcia, won because he made a deal with Rahm Emanuel and Luis Gutierrez, who is the former congressman stepping down from that seat in exchange for supporting establishment politician, Mike Madigan (IL). Madigan is the party boss in charge of the Illinois Democratic Party. Jesus Garcia made a corrupt deal for that seat.That’s 3 out of 4.That means Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is the only person who has unseated an establishment democrat during this entire 2018 midterm process. Let that sink in. How many millions of dollars have gone into progressive ca ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQNgafddwFc
