Claudia De la Cruz, a leftist activist from New York, announced her 2024 campaign for president of the United States on September 7, 2023. She and running mate Karina Garcia formed the presidential ticket for the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), a communist party, in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
De la Cruz received 167,772 votes (0.11%). De la Cruz nearly doubled the PSL's 2020 total, and won the most votes received by a candidate running on an explicitly socialist presidential ticket since the Socialist Party's Norman Thomas in 1936.
