Building power on the left isn’t easy. Progressives and leftists are opposed by not just the GOP, but also corporate-backed Democrats, corporate-backed media, and countless establishment institutions that aggressively fight to uphold the status quo.

So then how did Judith Whitmer and a slate of Bernie-backing progressives sweep the recent Nevada Democratic Party elections? What does Whitmer’s victory mean for Nevada Democrats? How are other states, like New Mexico, building progressive power? And what lessons can progressives learn and apply to our own local and state parties?

Judith Whitmer, Chair of the Nevada Democratic Party, and Pia Gallegos, Co-founder of the Adelante Progressive Caucus of the New Mexico Democratic Party discuss building power for progressives and left in their own state Democratic Parties.
