After more than 6,200 (!!) ballots were cast, SMC emerges with 153 of 437 delegate seats at NYC-DSA City Convention 2026!
Thank you to EVERYONE who chipped in, reached out, and made this incredible effort possible.

A future member of Congress still being invested and active in the internal life of DSA is exciting.

The first time I was a delegate to NYC-DSA convention was 2022. It's the very heart of DSA's democracy.
And this year, I’m voting for the Socialist Majority slate. Vote by Sunday night: vote.socialistmajority.com/n…

Voting for NYC-DSA Convention delegates is open! 🗳️
Check your inbox and vote for the SMC slate to grow our movement, defeat fascism, and deliver for the working class. Let's run AOC for president, elect more socialists in 2028, build labor and youth movements, and demystify DSA.

"Almost entirely absent, however, are the voices of Palestinian New Yorkers. In the 19 stories reviewed by Hell Gate, Palestinian New Yorkers are quoted exactly twice, representing about three percent of the voices quoted by the Times on the issue."

Winning elections is helping democratic socialists build power: DSA membership is surging, chapters are growing and millions of NYC tenants have won a rent freeze.
@thomasbirm asks: Why not keep winning?

NEW: The morning after the socialists swept, the establishment had its excuse ready: Claire Valdez and Darializa Avila Chevalier only won because of gentrification.
It was a convenient narrative.
It is also false. And we can prove it:

Darializa Avila Chevalier won Black voters.
Claire Valdez won Hispanic voters.

If you're going to start taking big real estate money, at least be honest about it.
