Progressive Upset: A Watershed Moment for Democratic Primary Elections The progressive movement's decision to back Elijah Manley, a 27 year old substitute teacher, over veteran Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz in Florida's newly drawn 20th congressional district marks a significant shift within the party.

Wasserman Schultz has long been criticized for her ties to corporate interests and her handling of the 2016 presidential primary election.
