    There’s fairly specific reasons we were watching NYC’s mayoral election though, that being their use as a barometer for progressive ideals’ ability to win.

      This right here. It’s not isolated to NYC. It’s a crack in the pavement of ossified ideas and outdated politics. If a more progressive platform works in one place, it could work in many more.

      the fact that both the DNC and RNC fought this is incredibly telling of how big a deal this is.
