As the 2024 presidential election is still underway, a new wave of Democratic socialists is already turning its sights on the 2028 elections. According to a report by Politico, a growing number of progressive lawmakers and activists are positioning themselves for a possible run in the next presidential cycle. With the likes of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders already making waves in the Democratic Party, the 2028 field could be crowded with candidates pushing for a more radical left-wing agenda. As the Democratic Party continues to grapple with its own identity and direction, the rise of Democratic socialists could reshape the party's future and challenge the status quo in Washington.
