🗳️ No party endorsement. No mayor's backing. No establishment support. Just the people — and a 15-point win.
State Rep. Chris Rabb just pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the 2026 primary season, winning the Democratic nomination for Pennsylvania's 3rd Congressional District despite being rejected by Philadelphia's Democratic machine.
His opponent had the mayor's endorsement. The third candidate had the sitting congressman's support. Rabb had grassroots organizers — and Zohran Mamdani's momentum behind him.
He calls himself a Democratic socialist and a proud troublemaker. His platform includes Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, and government-owned grocery stores.
"I have been critiqued for being too radical, too bold," he said in his victory speech. "They ain't seen nothing yet."
The progressive wave is not slowing down. 🔗 Full story at the link in bio.
