New York’s primaries are litmus test on whether Democrats are serious about taking on MAGA

Tuesday is primary day in New York. On the surface, everything should be hunky dory for Democrats there. The Knicks won the NBA Finals after the San Antonio Spurs blew two double-digit leads. Just over the river in New Jersey, the World Cup is underway. And polling shows Democrats look on track to win back the House of Representatives.

But good vibes can only last so long. And on Tuesday, the primaries in the city will determine if Democrats are more focused on taking on New York’s most famous export — Donald Trump — or if they want to get the Democratic Party back on track. Some may call it a Democratic Tea Party; others might say it’s a Democratic block party.
