Most voters stayed home for stunning Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez win

166. I think that the hostility is overblown, but the reason is that AOC has spent much of her time...

criticizing the Democratic party. She is the Democratic nominee so there should be support for her according to the TOS in DU, but I understand some of the displeasure with her when she is at very least, intimating at restructuring the Democratic Party.


I think that there should always be a healthy debate and that primaries are necessary to gauge where the party is. I do not like when candidates try to tear each other down and use slurs like, "the candidate of the 1%" on Democratic candidates as people from Our Revolution are want to do about Democratic incumbents.

AOC has focused on what she wants to try to do in congress, which is good, but she has gone on air sometimes and provided Republicans with ammunition to hit the Democratic candidates in areas where she was supporting another Democrat over the eventual winner of the primary.

All that being said, I still want her to win the GE over ANY Republican.
