I'm not so sure. The fella she beat in the Dem primary -- Joe Crowley -- is running as an Independent. He's held that seat a long time and I think his supporters will show up for the General Election (unlike the Primary, which had a very meager turnout).

Not really. His name was placed on the ballot representing the Working Families Party and Crowley isn't going to comply with the arcane and complicated procedures to remove his name from the ticket. However, he has effectively ended his campaign, insists he is not running, and (sorta) endorsed Ocasio-Cortez saying "The Democratic Party needs to come together."
