Thoughts on Primary Night, June 23, 2020

All primary, people were told that they shouldn’t vote for Bernie because his ideas were “too radical” and that suburban white America was not ready for “a socialist”.

Well, Jamaal Bowman and Mondaire Jones both won their primaries in the Bronx/Westchester/Rockland running on Bernie’s policies and Ritchie Torres is a LGBTQ+ progressive. AOC beat her challenger in a landslide. Charles Booker looks like he may defeat Amy McGrath in Kentucky!

The country is ready for progressive policies and progressive politicians, they’re ready for LGBTQ candidates and minority candidates, they’re ready for real, progressive, revolutionary change.

The *donors* and the *establishment* managed to beat Bernie, but they can’t beat all of us. #NotMeUs
