James,
The voters have spoken loud and clear.
Zohran Mamdani ran and won on ideas New Yorkers – and all Americans – are hungry for: Affordable housing, childcare, and transportation, as well as good-paying union jobs. These aren’t pie-in-the-sky policies. They’re concrete, popular measures that will raise the standard of living for everyday people right now. That’s why turnout soared, with young and first-time voters lining up to make their voices heard.
But establishment Democrats aren’t seeing or feeling the momentum. In fact, top party leaders are in denial. When asked if Mamdani was the future of the Democratic Party, Hakeem Jeffries was quick to reply: “No.” Chuck Schumer refused to endorse him, and even refused to answer when asked if he voted for the Democratic nominee. This isn’t leadership – this is a fundamental disconnect, plain and simple.
As we pivot to the 2026 midterms, we want to hear from Our Revolution supporters so we can tell Democratic leaders the lessons that the grassroots thinks they should learn from Mamdani’s historic victory. It will also help us influence what candidates run on during the 2026 midterms. Can you take a quick minute to fill out this survey and tell us where you stand? Here’s the first question:
Do you think Chuck Schumer should step aside as Democratic Senate Minority Leader after failing to endorse Mamdani?
Yesterday’s election sent an unmistakable message: bold, progressive ideas fire up the grassroots. Yet time after time, the Democratic Establishment turns its back on progressive candidates.
What’s happening is clear: as Trump’s authoritarianism reaches new heights, Democratic leaders are doubling down on the same, tired playbook – ignoring grassroots energy and voters hungry for real change.
Our Revolution was built to challenge business as usual inside the Democratic Party. If we don’t speak up now, the party will never change – and that will hurt us as we pivot to the 2026 elections. YOUR input matters. Your perspective can shape where our movement goes from here.
Your responses will help inform our strategy as we get ready for critical 2026 elections. When you fill out this quick survey on the future of the Democratic Party, you will help our movement tell Democratic leaders and 2026 candidates the best way to fight back against Trump and win.
When we organize, we win!
Our Revolution
