The democratic socialist Melat Kiros unseated the long-serving US representative Diana DeGette in Colorado’s primary elections held on Tuesday, the latest in a string of high-profile victories for the party’s insurgent left.
The Associated Press reported that Kiros had defeated DeGette for the Democratic nomination in the deep-blue first congressional district centered on Denver. Kiros’s triumph came a week after New York voters unseated two Democratic congressional incumbents and replaced a third who was retiring with candidates who had campaigned on standing up to Israel amid accusations that it was carrying out a genocide in Gaza.
In a country where half the citizens are morons it will become increasingly more important for our candidates to focus on boots on the ground campaigning and leveraging heavily on social media. Our news outlets are so biased it’s borderline criminal what we allow them to get away with in the name of “journalism”
