    An activist and member of the Democratic Socialists of America, Ocasio-Cortez won over voters in the minority-majority district with a ruthlessly efficient grassroots bid, even as Crowley — the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House — outraised her by a 10-to-1 margin.

    Meet Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the millennial, socialist political novice who beat her establishment Democratic rival in a huge electoral upset

    ———-Big changes in store for the old guard in the DNC, like this woman it is a shift into a more hard core left.
    #4 in the house, that is serious change to a novice.

    Between, Mr. Crowley’s defeat from a socialist outsider, which is what Ms. Ocasio-Crotez is, and the Government Union Dues rulings today, these are body blows to the democrat party coffers. While these are not death blows to the democrat party, they are going to hurt. Mr. Crowley was Pelosi’s right hand man on Congress. The plan was for him to replace Pelosi, which is not happening now. He was a big fundraiser for the democrat party. Him and the lose of union dues are going to financially harm the democrat party.

    Also, while is not talked about was that SJWs protested Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his wife, US Secretary of Transportation, Elaine Chao, at their home, and Mrs Choa is p~~~ed over the matter: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2018/06/leave-my-husband-alone-mitch-mcconnells-wife-screams-as-angry-protesters-surround-mitch-mcconnells-vehicle-video/

    While Mr. McConnell has been a a bit of a fence sitting on President Trump’s requests, after this his wife will push him to be full on board the Trump Train.

    In addition, Mr. McConnell canceling the Senate August recess is going to hurt the democrats in the Senate, but also the democrat party because the Senate democrats will not have time to raise campaign donations for the democrat party.

    All this combined with the democrat party fracturing over calls for violence against Trump supporters is causing the democrat party to come apart at the seems.

    It’s fine, I think there should be term limits to both the house and senate. To many useless people in both that have been there far too long. They should have a 2 term limit just like the president in my opinion.

    Let them go left, I’ll go right tearing this motherf~~~er in two!

    Civil war before gun confiscation is our only shot at redemption!

    We’re not the left’s tax mule to bear the burdens of their waste, fraud, and corruption!

    They’ve done enough damage over generations and won’t stop until there’s nothing left to tax and destroy!

    Like cancer untreated they eventually kill the host.

    How to get elected: be a woman with hyphenated name that doesn’t sound American.

    This hurts the democratic party for sure, but I see it more of a sign that people are frustrated with the old guard on both sides than just a weakening of the democrats. The republics are rather fractured themselves, torn between pleasing the media, lobbyist, and the voting base. There have been calls to vote out the old and bring in the new on the Republican side as well.

    Overall it’s a good thing. The less impact corporations, media, and money have on election results, the better.

    Ok. Then do it.

    I would add the Supreme Court too.

    minority-majority district

    This result was really not surprising as he was no longer viewed as relevant to the people electing him. His loss to the Democratic party will indeed be severe, but his electoral base were not looking at the party but personal issues within the area.

    They should have a 2 term limit just like the president in my opinion.

    Some kind of limit has to be put in place, if not then candidates will have to either be elected because of the Party or their appeal to the electorate.

    Considering how racist many minorities are, pretty much any non-white person in a minority heavy district promising them free stuff should be able to beat a white person, even if said white person is also promising free stuff. It doesn’t matter what they have to say about actual issues…just free stuff + don’t be white.
