\n New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani saw a clean sweep Tuesday, with House candidates backed by the democratic socialist mayor winning three congressional primaries \u2014 ousting two incumbent Democrats in the process.\n <\/p>

\n Mamdani\u2019s show of force were the latest preview of the ideological battles to come, as Democrats vying to win control on Capitol Hill in November\u2019s midterm elections also look ahead to the 2028 presidential race.\n <\/p>\n

\n In the 13th District, democratic socialist Darializa Avila Chevalier defeated Rep. Adriano Espaillat, the chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, in a race that \u2013 like the other New York contests \u2013 focused largely on the United States\u2019 relationship with Israel.\n <\/p>\n

\n Another democratic socialist, Assemblywoman Claire Valdez, defeated Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso in the race to replace outgoing Rep. Nydia Vel\u00e1zquez in the 7th District.\n <\/p>\n

\n And in the 10th District, Mamdani ally and former city comptroller Brad Lander defeated Rep. Dan Goldman.\n <\/p>\n

\n Mamdani celebrated Tuesday night with Lander, telling the crowded that his one-time rival in last year\u2019s mayoral race \u201cbrings a vision of politics that is more than what we\u2019ve seen for so long.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n It comes on a busy day of primaries in which President Donald Trump\u2019s influence with South Carolina Republican voters proved limited, and Maryland and Utah voters cast their ballots.\n <\/p>\n

\n Here are key takeaways from Tuesday\u2019s primaries:\n <\/p>\n

\n A moment of change for the Democratic Party\n<\/h2>\n

\n The victories by Mamdani-backed New York City progressives come in a moment of upheaval in the Democratic Party that stretches far beyond the five boroughs.\n <\/p>\n

\n The year after voters elected Mamdani and another democratic socialist, Seattle\u2019s Katie Wilson, two more of the country\u2019s largest cities could choose similar leaders. Janeese Lewis George won the Democratic mayoral primary in Washington, DC, earlier this month, all but assuring she will win November\u2019s general election in the overwhelmingly blue city. In Los Angeles, another democratic socialist city councilwoman, Nithya Raman, advanced to a head-to-head race against incumbent Mayor Karen Bass \u2014 a longtime figure of California\u2019s Democratic establishment.\n <\/p>\n

\nFrom New York to Seattle to DC, more cities are picking democratic socialist leaders<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n Those outcomes and more reflect a Democratic electorate that remains deeply opposed to Trump \u2014 but that is dissatisfied with its own party\u2019s leadership, as well, and looking for change.\n <\/p>\n

\n In Washington and beyond, it\u2019s left Democratic officials scrambling to figure out what\u2019s happening and what it means for the party\u2019s future. Meanwhile, Republicans look to parlay the most controversial positions taken by progressives in blue strongholds into campaign fodder against more moderate Democrats in battleground states and districts.\n <\/p>\n

\n Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman told CNN on Tuesday that \u201cthe dirtbag left is surging.\u201d New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker was more diplomatic, telling CNN\u2019s Kaitlan Collins that \u201cour party\u2019s not homogenous.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cOne of the things that make the Democratic Party great is it\u2019s a big tent party. We need to stay that way,\u201d Booker said.\n <\/p>\n

\n If Democrats win majorities in the House, the Senate or both in November\u2019s midterm elections, this year\u2019s upheaval could have ramifications for leadership races over the winter in caucuses shifting to the left.\n <\/p>\n

\n House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who supported the Democratic incumbents in New York, said Tuesday that he and Mamdani had \u201cagreed to strongly disagree\u201d on those races. The crowd at Avila Chevalier\u2019s party Tuesday night booed Jeffries when he appeared on television.\n <\/p>\n

\n But the outcomes of competitive Democratic primaries don\u2019t all reflect an ideological shift to the left.\n <\/p>\n

\n In New York\u2019s 12th District \u2013 a Manhattan seat covering one of the nation\u2019s oldest and wealthiest electorates \u2013 voters opted for Micah Lasher, a state assemblyman with broad establishment backing, over another state assemblyman, progressive favorite Alex Bores, who has pushed to regulate artificial intelligence. Jack Schlossberg, who tried to position himself as a force for change in the party, finished a distant third \u2014 with voters rejecting the resurrection of his grandfather\u2019s Camelot in their search for new leadership. And in Democrats\u2019 best shot at flipping a seat in Utah, voters backed moderate former Rep. Ben McAdams on Tuesday over several rivals running to his left in the newly redrawn 1st District.\n <\/p>\n

\n At the state-wide level, Democratic voters in a US Senate primary in Iowa earlier this month chose the more moderate candidate who made electability a centerpiece of his campaign, state Rep. Josh Turek, over progressive state Sen. Zach Wahls.\n <\/p>\n

\n It all sets the stage for a 2028 Democratic presidential primary that will accelerate rapidly after the midterm elections. Candidates seeking to become the party\u2019s next standard-bearer will have to navigate a Democratic electorate that isn\u2019t just hungry for victory against Republicans, but has shown an eagerness to remake its own party.\n <\/p>\n

\n Israel continues to be a major Democratic fault line\n<\/h2>\n

\n The New York races underscored the rapid shift in how Democratic voters feel about the United States\u2019 support for Israel \u2013 an issue Lander, who is Jewish himself, gave voice to Tuesday night.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cDemocrats are painfully divided by our differences over the US relationship to Israel and Palestine, and we have to face up to it squarely,\u201d Lander said, calling former President Joe Biden\u2019s policy toward Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu \u201ca catastrophic failure.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Israel was central to all of the New York races. Avila Chevalier won despite drawing scrutiny over her attendance at a pro-Palestinian rally the day after Hamas\u2019 October 7, 2023, attacks. Goldman said it was a \u201csad state of affairs\u201d that a Brooklyn coffee shop apparently banned him with a viral social media post in which the shop bragged its coffee \u201cdoesn\u2019t taste like genocide juice.\u201d\n <\/p>

\n Lander\u2019s comments highlighted a fault line that\u2019s likely to play a significant role in the 2028 presidential primary. He condemned Israel\u2019s military conduct in Gaza and its treatment of Palestinians, while reflecting on the need for tolerance and understanding. He also called for a distinction between antisemitism and the criticism of Israel\u2019s government, as debates over the subject continue to roil Democratic politics.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cYou can criticize Israel and not be antisemitic. You can be an anti-Zionist and not be antisemitic. Many Jews are, and many non-Jews also,\u201d he said.\n <\/p>\n

\n His win Tuesday came in a primary season in which a deluge of spending by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and its allies have featured prominently in many House contests. Lander urged the Democratic Party to \u201cwalk away from PACs funded by crypto, Wall Street, AI and AIPAC.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n But Lander also warned his party to stay vigilant against rising antisemitism.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cToo often, though, people have started using Zionist as a slur for Jews,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd antisemitism, it rises with fascism and with war \u2014 and we\u2019re amidst both right now. Progressives need to be the people who are standing against this, not looking away from it.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Another setback for Trump in South Carolina\n<\/h2>\n

\n Trump technically picked a winner in the GOP primary runoff for South Carolina governor. But state Attorney General Alan Wilson\u2019s victory is clearly another setback for Trump.\n <\/p>\n

\n What are we talking about?\n <\/p>\n

\n Well, Trump initially endorsed Lt. Gov. Pam Evette ahead of the first round of the primary earlier this month. Evette finished first but not resoundingly so, and she faced a runoff with Wilson. Trump ultimately issued a dual endorsement of both candidates on Friday.\n <\/p>\n

\n Tuesday\u2019s landslide win for Wilson makes pretty clear what this was about: Wilson was about to win, and Trump wanted to avoid backing a loser. (That said, the dual endorsement in a two- person runoff guaranteed that he would back both a winner and<\/em> a loser in the race).\n <\/p>\n

\n And it doesn\u2019t change the fact that Trump\u2019s endorsement clearly didn\u2019t do Evette much good. The president picked a candidate, and she was about to become the third Trump-endorsed gubernatorial candidate to lose her party\u2019s nomination in just the last three weeks.\n <\/p>\n

\n (The previous two were Iowa Rep. Randy Feenstra and Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones.)\n <\/p>\n

\n The three losses tie the record for primary defeats by Trump-backed candidates for governor, set in 2022. And there are still a few months to go.\n <\/p>\n

\n Republican voters are clearly taking their cues from Trump in high-profile primaries like those involving Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, Texas Sen. John Cornyn and Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie. But with his popularity hitting new lows, they\u2019re snubbing his endorsement like they rarely have before in other races.\n <\/p>\n

\n And Trump\u2019s effort to cover his backside shouldn\u2019t obscure that fact.\n <\/p>\n

\n (Though Trump did notch a significant win in a congressional primary, with Trump-backed businessman Anthony Constantino\u2019s win over Robert Smullen, the state GOP\u2019s pick, in upstate New York.)\n <\/p>\n

\n Trump resistance figures come up well short\n<\/h2>\n

\n Democrats might be more anti-Trump than ever. But they don\u2019t seem especially keen on electing prominent figures from the Trump resistance.\n <\/p>\n

\n George Conway, the anti-Trump former husband of Trump 2016 campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, finished far down in the crowded primary in New York\u2019s 12th.\n <\/p>\n

\n Former US Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn, who led the charge to hold January 6, 2021, rioters accountable, lost the Democratic primary for retiring Rep. Steny Hoyer\u2019s seat in Maryland, trailing Tuesday night in a distant third.\n <\/p>\n

\n And Goldman also fit the pattern somewhat. While he is an incumbent congressman, he played up his role as lead counsel during Trump\u2019s first impeachment in 2019, vowing to hold Trump accountable again if Democrats take the House.\n <\/p>\n

\n There was one success story that kind of fits in this category on Tuesday, though. That would be Nancy Lacore, the former three-star admiral who was among those purged by Defense Secretary Pete Hegsth last year. She won a congressional primary runoff in South Carolina.\n <\/p>\n

\n But Lacore isn\u2019t a widely known national figure. And mostly these kinds of candidates are losing.\n <\/p>\n

\n Former Republican Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan finished in the single digits last month after running for governor as a Democrat. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger did little better on the Republican side. And former Justice Department attorney Ryan Crosswell, who resigned in protest of the department\u2019s politicized handling of former New York Mayor Eric Adams\u2019 indictment last year, finished second in a Democratic congressional primary in Pennsylvania.\n <\/p>\n

\n Ukraine whistleblower Alexander Vindman is still running in the Democratic primary for US Senate in Florida.\n <\/p>\n

\n His brother, Eugene, is the rare resistance success story, elected to Congress in Virginia in 2024.\n <\/p>
