Another democratic socialist swept to victory in a Colorado primary Tuesday, with the now Democratic nominee in Colorado’s First Congressional District, Melat Kiros, defeating a 15-term incumbent, Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Co., in the Denver area district.
As with the three progressive victories in New York City last week, Kiros consolidated a progressive coalition in the safely Democratic district, defeating DeGette, herself a liberal institution in the district, by nearly 10-points as of Wednesday morning.
