A Democratic Socialist is leading the Democratic primary in Wisconsin, not a costal state. This shouldn’t come as a surprise, though. Francesca Hong For Governor is simply continuing the “sewer socialist” movement that began in Wisconsin over 100 years ago.

🚨 WISCONSIN DEMOCRATS JUST REJECTED THE DSA David Crowley narrowly defeated Francesca Hong in the Democratic primary for governor. Hong was the proud democratic socialist with past comments on abolishing police and Thanksgiving. Many expected her to win easily. Blue-collar Democrats in northern Wisconsin and the Black vote in Milwaukee went the other way. They didn’t buy the radical messaging. A real setback for the far left in a key state.

Ahead of Tuesday’s Democratic primary in Wisconsin, Democratic socialist Francesca Hong tells CBS News’ Taurean Small she’s “not going to cancel Thanksgiving.” The comment comes after Hong faced criticism for a 2020 social media post, since deleted, in which she called for scrapping the holiday, saying it celebrated colonialism and the deaths of Indigenous people. Hong says she now wants to shift the focus of her campaign to her policy agenda. Hong says that includes fully funding public schools, taxing the ultra-rich, placing a moratorium on data centers, expanding universal child care and guaranteeing paid leave. Hong and more moderate David Crowley are vying for the Democratic nomination for governor after two other candidates dropped out. President Trump’s ally, Rep. Tom Tiffany, is all but certain to win the Republican nomination.

Ahead of Tuesday’s primary election in Wisconsin, democratic socialist Francesca Hong is trying to win a four-way Democratic primary for governor where her top opponent has been endorsed by popular Gov. Tony Evers, who isn’t seeking a third term. Evers got behind Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley on July 18, the same day Crowley reentered the race after dropping out 10 days earlier. Wisconsin’s presumptive GOP nominee Tom Tiffany sees a November matchup against Hong as Republicans’ strongest chance to win back the governor’s office. CBS News’ Taurean Small has more.

She says it’s time for transformative, unapologetic policies: “Universal childcare, fully funded public schools, cheaper health care.” She would make an AMAZING governor.

Democratic Socialist Francesca Hong is surging in Wisconsin’s Democratic primary for governor, but her radical policies are so far to the left that outgoing Democratic governor Tony Evers is campaigning with her primary opponent. Hong’s progressive agenda and resurfaced social media posts are drawing scrutiny from both sides as she emerges as a leading contender. Former Republican Governor Scott Walker says his party needs to take her seriously if she makes it through the primary, setting up what could become a closely watched general election fight. | Mike Tobin

Francesca Hong is about to romp in Wisconsin. Kornacki walked through the chaos: Crowley dropped out for 10 days then jumped back in, and 140k mail-in ballots were cast “most of them in the Democratic primary,” while other candidates were still in the race. A democratic socialist is the clear favorite in a swing state.
