Some more progressive primary wins

Don't believe the hype from Repugs and establishment Dims alike: The progressives are winning a significant number of their primaries. The naysayers know these facts but are trying to spin it away because the establishment in both Parties is going down in the next election. So their cries and lies are their whining death knells. Some of the winners. See the link for details.

• Jahana Hayes—2016 National Teacher of the Year and strong supporter of Medicare for All—overcame Connecticut's powerful corporate-friendly Democratic establishment to defeat Mary Glassman in the state's fifth congressional district. Glassman was backed by a "bizarre coalition" of forces, including the local chapters of Our Revolution and MoveOn as well as the Chamber of Commerce.
• Union organizer and ironworker Randy Bryce—aka "The Iron Stache"—handily won the Democratic primary in Wisconsin's first district, where he is vying to replace retiring House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.). Bryce has said his progressive, populist campaign "scared" Ryan into retirement.
• Progressive Christine Hallquist won Vermont's Democratic gubernatorial primary, bringing her one step closer to becoming the nation's first transgender governor.
• Ilhan Omar, who ran on a platform of Medicare for All and a transformative fossil-fuel free energy agenda, emerged victorious in Minnesota's fifth district, putting her on track to join Michigan democratic socialist Rashida Tlaib as the first Muslim women likely to be elected to Congress.
