Ahead of a closely watched New York primary on Tuesday, progressive gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon and congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez endorsed each other on Monday, and announced they are coming together at a Get Out the Vote event in Queens to “speak of their shared progressive, people-powered campaigns taking on centrist, corporate Democrats.”

As the New York primary on Tuesday only applies to federal races, Nixon—like everyone else running for state or local offices—will have until September 13 to continue campaigning. However, voters in the state’s 14th District will head to ballot boxes in less than 24 hours to choose between Ocasio-Cortez and Democratic Rep. Joe Crowley, who hasn’t faced a primary challenger in 14 years.

Late Monday morning, Nixon turned to Twitter to offer her endorsement and declare that the two women are uniting to “envision a progressive New York that serves the many, not just the wealthy few.”
