It’s a mask off moment for the establishment. Angie Nixon is anti oligarch & anti war. They will always side with the pro oligarch & pro war centrist

19thnews.orgDemocratic socialist Angie Nixon upsets Alex Vindman in Florida’s Democratic Senate primary
Crazy upset that I did not see coming in the slightest. With how far right Florida has shifted I did not expect a progressive to win the primary at all. Obviously another good sign for the progressive faction of the party.
I haven't seen much polling of this race, and had honestly written it off in my head as a loss, but the one poll I could find that polled both showed Nixon OVERPERFORMING Vindman in the general by 2 points, although still behind by 8. I don't think this race is really a likely flip in the slightest but maybe a little bit more than I had expected.
Still likely a Moody win but yet another sign establishment Dems not being able to win primaries in swing and right-leaning states they should theoretically do the best in.
