"I'm on the right side of history": The far-left woman stunned in the Democratic primaries

Angie Nixon, who calls Israel's actions 'genocide', won the Democratic Senate primary in Florida, defeating Alex Windman with about 56% of the vote. In California, Aisha Wahab, whom the pro-Israel lobby tried to block, is on her way to victory. Nixon will face Ashley Moody in November.

Angie Nixon, a 42-year-old democratic socialist from Florida, won the Democratic Senate primary, defeating Jewish candidate Alex Windman. Nixon, who calls Israel's actions in Gaza 'genocide', received about 56% of the vote compared to Windman's 44%, despite Windman raising about $16.3 million versus her less than $1 million. She will face Republican Senator Ashley Moody in November. Meanwhile, in California, Aisha Wahab, whom the pro-Israel lobby AIPAC invested millions in trying to block, is on her way to victory in the special congressional election. Nixon, a sixth-generation Jacksonvillian, has been politically active since 2020 and was previously arrested in a protest against DeSantis's election maps. She received support from Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, and Cori Bush, and from the organizations 'Jewish Voice for Peace' and TrackAIPAC. She refused to condemn the slogan 'From the river to the sea' and did not provide a clear answer on whether Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish state. In Florida, Jared Moskowitz and Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Israel supporters, won their primaries, showing the picture is more complex.
