Cynthia Nixon announces she's a 'democratic socialist':

Cynthia Nixon on Tuesday proudly proclaimed herself a democratic socialist.
The actress-turned-candidate for governor explicitly embraced the democratic socialist label for the first time in a statement provided to Politico.
“Yes. Some more establishment, corporate Democrats get very scared by this term but if democratic socialism means that you believe health care, housing, education and the things we need to thrive should be a basic right not a privilege then count me in,” Nixon said in the statement.
