When most people think about politics, they picture elected representatives making decisions and writing laws in lavish buildings far away from home. But electoral politics represent only one avenue for taking power, and while it may be valuable to pour money and time into electing candidates that better represent a Leftist perspective, these efforts must be undertaken as part of a broader strategy to build a more just world. In this session, we will consider the possibilities and limitations for the Left in American electoral politics and discuss how to get involved in worthwhile electoral efforts. We will discuss the outcome of the 2018 midterm elections and especially the success of DSA [Democratic Socialists of America] candidates across the country.
