A socialist candidate for Minneapolis city council has broken all fundraising records through individual $25 donations

Good. We need people who are willing to stand up and push forward economic policies like these.

Because even one elected representative can get things on the agenda that shift the Overton window, and may win wider public support.

there are a number of instances that I can think of, where smaller parties campaigned for issues that seemed outside the mainstream, but then won support and were signed into law without the small parties ever getting into government.

We need a push back against the politics of unbridled capitalism, and here is the perfect place to start.
