Progressive candidates in several key races Tuesday showed they could survive a deluge of outside spending, much of it used to boost moderate Democrats or bash ones on the left

“They seem to have an unlimited amount of money, so they may keep tossing it around,” Warren told POLITICO. The Massachusetts senator endorsed several of the winning candidates Tuesday, including Oregon state Rep. Andrea Salinas, who weathered $13 million in outside spending from Bankman-Fried’s super PAC and other groups in favor of her principal opponent, Carrick Flynn. But Salinas won the primary, and she could become the first Latina to represent Oregon in Congress if elected in November.

Next week, a key test of progressive strength comes out of the Texas runoffs, where Cisneros is trying to unseat Rep. Henry Cuellar , the lone anti-abortion rights Democrat left in the House, who still enjoys the support of House leadership and a range of moderate outside groups. Cisneros’ critics have already dumped more than $1.2 million against her, arguing that she’s too liberal for a battleground seat that Biden won by 7 points in 2020.

Even more of that type of race is on the horizon, including member-versus-member primaries and open-seat battles in Illinois, California, New York and Florida. In August, Reps. Andy Levin and Haley Stevens will square off in a Michigan primary, after they were both drawn into the same district. Levin, a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, has been endorsed by the Working Families Party, while Stevens has been backed by Democratic Majority for Israel, a super PAC that backs more moderate candidates.

And some establishment incumbents and their allies brushed off the suggestion that the downfall of moderate candidates — potentially including one incumbent — would portend badly for their own primary battles. Longtime Rep. Danny Davis said he is confident he will beat back a challenge in Chicago from Collins, who is endorsed by the Justice Democrats.

and New York does white collar jobs doesn't admit that California and New York have a lot of lower skilled immigrants that do low skilled jobs or some parts of Arkansas like Little Rock or Bentonville, the headquarters of Walmart do professional jobs like software sales.

In fact watching Wheel of Fortune lots of Dems think of Arkansas as a poor state while there is some truth to that, the contestant on Wheel of Fortune did a software sales job in Little Rock Arkansas are perceptions of all southern states do blue collar jobs and California and

take people and jobs away from California or New York. Toyota moved its headquarters 7 years ago out of LA to Plano Texas and JP Morgan transferred 4,000 midskilled financial jobs out of New York City to Plano Texas.

In fact for Trump to have won the Midwest he focus on the loser areas like Youngstown not New Albany where the chip factory is going to go up. In fact before Trump Republicans were into the Texas Miracle. Yup, its true that Texas burb areas near Austin, Dallas, or Houston take

can also be called rustbelt and New York has had democratic governors longer than PA. Also, the Central Valley area of California can be called a rustbelt and both governors Brown or Newsom have not improves the Central Valley much.

In fact mentioning Fetterman, a young Hispanic woman went to his state for a job and a place to live not New York city or LA. She had lived in the Rio Grande and moved to Pittsburgh Fetterman like his counterparts on the right paint PA as a rustbelt but New York upper state areas

Arizona has Ducey has governor even though its less republican than in the past its still more republican than California is. California had Newscom and the biggest job gains in California where in the bay area not the inland empire.

in Queens Creek in nearby Pinal County was protested while in LA/OC you would not here of an electric battery plant going up in the Inland Empire.

In fact LA/OC lost people to Phoenix while Phoenix gain people from LA/OC and unlike the growth prior to 2010, Phoenix is gaining a lot of jobs people didn't even want an electric battery plant in Queens Creek

'like Shontel Brown in Ohio, like the two races in North Carolina, like the race in Kentucky...' I wouldn't consider Ohio, NC, and Kentucky to be progressive bellwethers. But if these 'centrist' superPACs want to piss away their money before this fall I'm cool with that.

Horrifying.

Lmao Republicans are cheering progressives! Dems run more of em. Did republicans help vote them in to the race?

Of course they will survive. Everyone wants socialism. So what is the problem?

Supporting moderate candidates in either wing seems to be Not Allowed. Why does every election follow the bad decisions of the last election?
