Mamdani's a socialist, apparently (we'll see), not a progressive. Spanberger and Sherill are ex-Blue Dogs, the Democratic Party's far-right. They helped to block all progressive legislation from even getting introduced during the first two years of the Biden Presidency, when Democrats had "control." Am I missing someone lower down on the ballot?
