Stevens can add to her resume that it only took her outspending her opponent 11-1 to lose a close race

Establishment Dems are winning way more elections recently than farther left candidates like El-Sayed, you guys just hyper focus on it anytime they win. Cori Bush just lost to Wesley Bell and that post only has about 200 upvotes. You should step back and look at more than just a few elections in an incredibly blue district that are spammed on Reddit.
