Democratic socialists are making a power play in Chicago. After Tuesday’s runoff elections, a total of four – and possibly five – democratic socialists have won seats for alderman on the city council. A third democratic socialist candidate, Rosanna Rodriguez-Sanchez, is currently locked in a tight race with longtime Ald. The victories for the democratic socialists on Tuesday come after two other candidates aligned with them won alderman seats back in February. The Chicago City Council has 50 aldermen.
