New York's 13th Congressional District, a heavily blue-leaning seat covering parts of Manhattan and the Bronx. Her victory is a major upset that ousted a five-term incumbent and chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
Avila Chevalier, backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), didn't want to face questioned on primary Election Day about her about past comments and now-deleted social media posts.
The candidate, who now goes onto the general election in November where she will almost assuredly win a seat in Congress, has faced growing scrutiny in recent weeks over archived posts. She criticized Democratic leaders, called for abolishing police and prisons, opposed deportations and made inflammatory remarks about U.S. institutions and foreign policy.
She also helped lead protests against the Israel-Hamas war at Columbia University and was part of a campus group that later called for "Death to America."
I am not sure who the Left hates more, is it America or Israel? I'm sure they believe that to have world utopia, the world must destroy both. One thing is for sure though, democrats today can't rant about anything without mentioning Jews, much like those in the Nazi regime of old.
