Progressive challengers backed by Mamdani sweep three NY Democratic primaries

Progressive challengers endorsed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept three Democratic congressional primaries June 23, ousting two incumbents and capturing an open seat after the candidates' positions on Israel's military campaign in Gaza emerged as a major issue. Democratic strategists on both sides of the contest said the results could represent the beginning of a major shift in the Democratic Party’s direction.
