CHICAGO \u2014 For leaders of the country\u2019s democratic socialist movement, 2026 has been a year of successes beyond anything they had dared to hope.<\/p>

\u201cI never thought this would be possible in my lifetime,\u201d Ashik Siddique, co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America, said in an interview during a three-day meeting over the weekend that drew 600 members here. \u201cIt definitely has been a shock to some of us to see the gains we are making, but it doesn\u2019t come from nowhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

So young is the organization\u2019s dues-paying membership, Siddique said, that \u201cI\u2019m an elder in DSA terms. I\u2019m in my 30s.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the DSA gathering, billed as a summit, attendees were addressed as \u201ccomrades.\u201d Evidence of what brought them here were the \u201cAbolish ICE\u201d T-shirts on sale, along with buttons declaring \u201cLand Lords Suck\u201d and posters with the 19th-century slogan \u201cLabor is entitled to all it creates.\u201d Manning one exhibit hall table was \u201cDeer Leader\u201d \u2014 the taxidermy head of a buck with a red DSA ball cap tucked between its antlers.<\/p>\n

But a serious and strategic question hung over the celebratory mood: What now?<\/p>\n

Since last year\u2019s election of democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani as New York mayor, candidates formally endorsed by the DSA\u2019s national governing body or supported by its local chapters have swept dozens of primaries<\/a>, from city council contests to congressional races, in some cases defeating veteran Democratic incumbents.<\/p>\n

DSA membership has exploded, to nearly 120,000 nationally, more than double what it was when Donald Trump won a second term as president in 2024. A CNN poll released last week found that one-third of Democrats and Democratic-leaning adults<\/a> identify as democratic socialists.<\/p>\n

Those numbers are the reason the Democratic Party establishment is so worried about what it sees as a political death wish. <\/b>In a Washington Post-Ipsos survey<\/a> conducted last month, 3 out of 4 Democrats said they would be open to supporting a democratic socialist for president \u2014 but fewer than half of all Americans felt that way.<\/p>\n

DSA members acknowledge that is a conundrum, and not only on the presidential level. Many of their platform\u2019s long-term goals, such as abolishing the prison system, opening the borders, defunding the Pentagon and getting rid of the U.S. Senate, are far outside the mainstream.<\/p>\n

But they insist this should not deter them from putting forward democratic socialist candidates outside deep-blue enclaves like New York City. Among those contenders is Francesca Hong, who appears to be ahead in the messy Aug. 11 <\/b>Democratic gubernatorial primary in the crucial swing state of Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be a disaster if a leftist won the primary and lost the general election, but it was a disaster in 2016 when a centrist won the primary and lost the general,\u201d said Jeremy Cohan, a former co-chair of the DSA\u2019s 15,000-member New York City chapter, referring to the hard-fought battle between Hillary Clinton, dynastic standard bearer for the establishment, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), who elevated the democratic socialist brand to the national level.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to take these risks to win,\u201d Cohan said.<\/p>\n

DSA members belong to largely autonomous chapters, and many also group themselves into more than a dozen fractious caucuses. Looking forward, a central question is whether they should seek to jolt the Democratic Party to the left or make what they refer to as a \u201cdirty break.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cerena Ermitanio, a registered nurse from the Houston chapter, is a member of the 27-person National Political Committee, which functions as the DSA\u2019s board of directors. She also counts herself as part of its Marxist, labor-oriented Bread & Roses caucus.<\/p>\n

Ermitanio said a complete break from the Democratic Party \u201cmakes sense to me as a tactic,\u201d because the DSA\u2019s alternative is to relegate itself to being \u201ca junior partner\u201d in an establishment institution that does not speak to the concerns of working people.<\/p>

DSA member Katie Sims, right, attends the gathering. (Joshua Lott\/For The Washington Post)<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Taking the other side of the argument was Katie Sims, a member of the Ithaca, New York, chapter who chairs the DSA\u2019s electoral operations and is part of the \u201creformist\u201d Socialist Majority Caucus. (DSA members rankle at anyone who would describe them as centrist or moderate.)<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re trying to win the Democratic voter base,\u201d Sims said. \u201cSo it wouldn\u2019t make sense to stop what\u2019s working.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another question is whether to continue to put its volunteer-driven field operations toward electing candidates who agree with the DSA on central tenets, such as government-run health care, but don\u2019t embrace the democratic socialist label.<\/p>\n

In Michigan\u2019s crucial Democratic Senate primary on Tuesday, for example, DSA activists and ground troops are informally helping progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed, even though he insists he is not a socialist, \u201cjust a capitalist who understands how capitalism works.\u201d<\/p>\n

But DSA chapters have been less lenient elsewhere. The Orlando chapter recently told a county commission candidate seeking its endorsement that he would have to put the words \u201cdemocratic socialist\u201d on his website to receive it, chapter member Cliff Connolly recalled. Ten minutes later, Connolly said, the top of that website declared the candidate \u201cA Democratic Socialist fighting for working families.\u201d<\/p>\n

To win the DSA\u2019s high-profile national endorsement, officials said, a candidate must meet a list of criteria: identify as a full-throated democratic socialist, not merely a progressive; be running where the DSA has a strong chapter and can assist with a robust organizational infrastructure; decline to take money from the pro-Israel lobby; and support DSA positions that include abolishing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and establishing a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.<\/p>\n

The national board also puts candidates seeking its endorsement through a rigorous interview process, one that leaders said has become more so since Mamdani\u2019s victory.<\/p>\n

One of the next things on the agenda is putting together the process to make <\/b>a 2028 presidential endorsement, with a target of doing so as early as next March or April.<\/p>\n

The odds-on favorite for winning it, should she decide to run, is Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York). But any endorsement would be part of a longer-horizon strategy for the DSA, said Alex Pellitteri, chair of the DSA\u2019s presidential exploratory committee.<\/p>\n

DSA leaders recognize an imperative to expand the reach of their organization \u2014 and their movement \u2014 beyond the young, urban and college-educated who constitute a disproportionate share<\/a> of it. They say a national presidential effort would help do that.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat attracts us to running a candidate is it would give us a platform to reach millions of people all across the country,\u201d said Pellitteri, who got his start in politics as a high school student knocking on doors for Sanders in 2016.<\/p>\n

But they vow 2028 would be only the beginning of a long journey. \u201cWe see it as a means to help grow the socialist movement and the DSA,\u201d he added. \u201cOur goal is to have the transition from capitalism to socialism, and that will not be achieved in one campaign.\u201d<\/p>
