A Democratic Socialist Aims to Oust a Top AIPAC Beneficiary in Florida

The conventional thinking for Democrats hoping to win in Florida is to be tough on Cuba, friendly to Israel, and careful to avoid appearing too liberal. It’s a tactic aimed at courting powerful voting blocs, and one that helped Rep. Jared Moskowitz take office in the land of sunny skies and low taxes. This year, however, he’s facing a challenger attempting to flip that strategy on its head. A Democratic Socialists of America member, Oliver Larkin, is trying to win a primary against Moskowitz by running far to his left on both foreign and domestic policies.

Why it matters

The primary could signal how progressive policies and anti-Israel stances resonate with Florida Democrats ahead of future elections.
