Topic	AOC influence in question after Eric Adams defeats her picks for NYC mayor
MelbuFrahma4 07/07/21 1:53:25 PM #1:	https://www.foxnews.com/politics/aoc-influence-in-question-eric-adams-nyc-mayoral-race About a year and a half ago, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made headlines after she downplayed election wins for Democrats in solidly Democrat districts, including her own. She also mentioned Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and said a "glass of water" with a "D" next to it could win. "[S]he's a wonderful member of Congress as I think all of our colleagues will attest. But those are districts that are solidly Democratic," Pelosi, D-Calif., said at the time. The comment was widely embraced by Republicans who have been trying to gauge Ocasio-Cortez's influence on a much larger scale. Could she defeat Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., in a race for the Senate? Can she be the mayor of New York? Ocasio-Cortez herself has left open the possibility of a Senate run in the past. The victory by Eric Adams, a former police captain, in New York City's Democratic primary for mayor could be an indicator that the congresswomans sway in her own city is exaggerated. In the first round of voting in the primary, Ocasio-Cortez endorsed progressive candidate Maya Wiley and ranked Scott Stringer as her second choice. Neither candidate even advanced to the final round, where Adams faced off against Kathryn Garcia in a close contest. Not surprised at all the poll numbers show rich white people are the ones voting for the AOC/Bernie Sanders crowd. They dont do well with minorities. --- "We'll never see Day-Lewis and Kubrick, or Kurosawa and Eastwood, but we have seen Bale and Nolan, a cinematic dream pairing come to life!" <cite>MelbuFrahma4 posted [p:955839403] in AOC influe...
