In a surprising turn of events, Democratic socialists are gaining significant traction in primary elections across the United States. From the streets of New York to the mountains of Colorado, a new wave of progressive candidates is making waves in the Democratic party. Led by figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who famously unseated a long-serving incumbent in 2018, these candidates are championing a platform of universal healthcare, free college education, and a more equitable economic system. As voters increasingly turn to the left, the question on everyone's mind is: can these democratic socialists ride this momentum all the way to the White House?
