flag Progressive Analilia Mejia narrowly won New Jersey’s Democratic primary for Congress, setting up a June rematch.

Analilia Mejia, a progressive candidate backed by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, has won New Jersey’s Democratic primary for a special congressional election, defeating former Rep. Tom Malinowski by nearly 900 votes. The race, which drew national attention, highlighted tensions within the Democratic Party between progressive and moderate factions. Malinowski, who faced attack ads from a super PAC linked to AIPAC over his past support for ICE funding, conceded, criticizing the influence of dark money. Mejia, who has called Israel’s war in Gaza a genocide, will face another Democratic primary in June before the general election.
