A handful of candidates running for Congress align with the far-left wing of the Democratic Party and consider themselves part of the Democratic Socialists of America. These candidates, who come from Democratic strongholds, are expected to win their elections on November 3. They would join two democratic socialists already in the House. The progressive newcomers bring a new energy to the Democratic Party and also potential challenges for leadership, regardless of whether Democrats or Republicans hold the House majority for the final two years of President Donald Trump's term. Among the candidates are Darializa Avila Chevalier from New York, Melat Kiros from Colorado, Donavan McKinney from Michigan, Chris Rabb from Pennsylvania, and Claire Valdez from New York.
