The PSL put out a statement on Janese Lewis George’s victory in the democratic primary for mayor. I was hoping to hear any thoughts folks had on the statement, her win and, the implications of another major city mayor being a DSA member. Assuming of course that she wins the DC mayoral race.

This is how I hear the news that she won?!!

DC is filled with corporate democrats running in every ward. So glad to see that the city is united enough to vote for a progressive over mcdookie.

Very odd to me, actually lol. DC is filled with Reaganite democrats, state employees, government contractors, NGO liberals, I'm surprised she won.

I keep getting bombarded by ads for fake progressives like Pinto, who is very obviously a corporate democrat who talks about making it cheaper for homeowners by giving tax credits, and focusing the rest of her platform on giving tax credits to developers to fix the housing crisis. Very obviously not trying to solve the root of the issues and wants the petit-boug vote because less than half of DC owns their homes.
