    I guess my main point was that Sawant can indeed win on a socialist platform. Not that everything is set to go today.

      My point was meant to be that Sawant did indeed win in the past, but I think if she were to run today it would be harder. Momentum seems to be on the side of the right at the moment.

        Not a bad point but a counter point is that momentum always was and is against anyone left of liberal. It’s not like Sawant didn’t have an uphill battle against Amazon money
