NYC-DSA’s approach involves sustained voter contact via canvassing and phone banking, which they credit for their strong performance. The organization emphasizes loyalty to its movement and strategic endorsements to expand progressive representation in government, while expressing openness to collaboration with like-minded elected officials outside their ranks. They also highlight the need for traditional labor unions and Democratic establishment figures to adopt more robust organizing tactics similar to theirs. [Extracted from the article] |
