won with only 10,000 votes ,LOL
Only about 13 percent of registered Democrats turned out to vote in the 14th Congressional District that takes in parts of Queens and the Bronx, according to a preliminary city Board of Elections tally.
There are 214,750 active registered Democratic voters in the district. Only 27,744 voted, and Ocasio-Cortez won by more just 4,000 votes
87% of registered Democrats in the congressional district did not even bother to turn up to vote.
Yep, falsely advertised. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5905247/Girl-Bronx-Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez-actually-grew-wealthy-Westchester-County.html
Also, interned for Ted “The Swimmer” Kennedy...
13% turn out.
I heard it’s one of the most reliably Dem districts in the country but I think the GOP should challenge her. Does she have an opponent?
Yep.
Aha! You are suggesting that Liberals may have a functional mind to begin with? LMAO!
You so silly!
Worked for Obama.
People shouldn't dismiss her so quickly, or what her win means for the Democratic Party.
She beat out a 10-term congressman who people often say represented the "Archie Bunker" Democrats of NY-14. The Archie Bunkers are long gone. NY-14 is Hispanic. Democrats will increasingly move leftward, not even bother hiding their socialism, while telling whites that they have no seat at the table. Pelosi is concerned and that's good for us.
>>Also, interned for Ted “The Swimmer” Kennedy...<<
Which means she can ad “knob polisher” to her political resume.
“Joe Crowley did a Hillary Clinton, when he took it for granted he was going to win.”
How come it wasn’t the Russians this time?
Exposure is what Marxist Liberals fear because they’re all deceitful liars and hypocrites. Do as they say; not as they do. They never plan to live like they want others to live. They consider themselves our betters always!
Congress is proof positive of that.
Indeed.
Her story doesn’t translate out of her district.
The significance is her impact on Democrats nationally.
Now that they’ve embraced her “Abolish ICE” nonsense, any doubt that they were going to get completely slaughtered at the polls this November is completely gone.
Check out the #WalkAway movement. The Democratic Party is all but over.
The Elites want Socialism so they can Steal Everything with no one to answer to
Can someone explain what this drivel is supposed to mean? I’m aware that the ability to write clearly and concisely has diminished in recent years, but this is ridiculous.
But.
He too white.
“One more evidence that Dem party’s liberal base has gone radical left-wing leaning.”
I would think that America has had more than enough of a “Community Organizer”, which is what she was for Crazy Bernie Sanders in 2016.
