and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Marcia Fudge, the district’s former representative, whose appointment to the Cabinet opened the seat. Turner co-chaired Sanders’ 2020 campaign against Biden, and she was on record making an obscene comment about the future president. In the rematch, Turner again had support from Sanders, I-Vt., and other allies of his movement.
