WASHINGTON Activist, nurse and pastor Cori Bush will again challenge Rep. William Lacy Clay in 2020, a rematch of their Democratic primary showdown last year.
A big question looms: Who will Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., support?
Bush was endorsed by the woman known as AOC in 2018. Bush says she hasnt asked and that the two are longtime friends and campaigned for one another in 2018, so an endorsement hasnt been much on her mind.
Clay says he hopes hell get the endorsement of the first-term congresswoman who has attracted a media spotlight far brighter than that usually accorded first-term members of Congress.
