The fight over the Democratic Party’s future may already be underway.
After a democratic socialist defeated a heavily funded establishment favorite in Florida’s Senate primary, we look at where the energy inside the Democratic Party is moving — and why the 2028 presidential primary could become a major battle between the party establishment and the DSA wing. That includes AOC, Mark Kelly’s early moves toward a presidential run, and why putting South Carolina near the front of the Democratic primary calendar could have major consequences.
Back in Arizona, Katie Hobbs and Andy Biggs are already facing millions of dollars in advertising as polling continues to show a competitive governor’s race. We dig into the AARP poll showing Hobbs ahead overall while Biggs leads voters over 50, along with Patrick Ruffini’s analysis of more than 3,000 Senate polls and the persistent Democratic polling advantage he found across recent election cycles.
Arizona’s school choice fight also gets a major update after the union-backed effort to change the ESA program was removed from the ballot. We break down the fight over signatures, the role of the Goldwater Institute and Arizona Free Enterprise Club, and why the larger battle over school choice isn’t going away.
Plus, New York’s property tax backlash, newly released FBI material involving Eric Swalwell and Christine Fang, Ruben Gallego, and what all of it could mean as the 2026 midterms give way to the fight for 2028.
