And who are the socialists running/winning?

She is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America. She has gotten recent vocal support from Bernie, but most Dems are veering clear from her as well.
Actually, she isn't a real socialist. Even though she is a DSA member, she isn't taken a DSA position on issues, she is a social democrat. Same for Bernie.
