Even out of office she will probably have a lot of clout with some party apparatchiks who can make Hogg’s political aspirations very challenging.

Ocasio-Cortez proved that doesn’t matter. Their nutjob whacko voters run the party now.

*****************

Ocasio-Cortez hasn’t proved anything yet. A few facts:

— Over 80 percent of eligible voters stayed home.

— Only about 13 percent of registered Democrats turned out to vote in her district.

— She only ‘won’ with 15,897 votes (a winning margin of just 4,136 votes) in a district with 214,750 active registered Democratic voters.

It was a big upset; no question about it. But the significance of her underwhelming victory remains to be seen.
