EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
National DSA leaders narrowly failed to rescind their endorsement of Los Angeles mayor-elect Nithya Raman over her stance on Israel.
The Socialists are already turning on one another.
Los Angeles mayor-elect Nithya Raman narrowly survived an extraordinary last-minute revolt from national Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) leaders over her positions on Israel and the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
The DSA’s National Political Committee voted 14-13 Monday against rescinding Raman’s endorsement, allowing her to retain the organization’s support one day before the November 3 election.
