If we had proportional representation?

How many democratic socialists would be in government now?

At least 20% based on the presidential primaries.

we would have over 50% female and 45% POC. Time to get out and become the candidate we are looking for.

45% of Democratic Primary voters voted for one for POTUS.

I am quite sure there would be a good representation of socialists in Government.
