eh. NYC is big enough to be a state on it's own.
Well, the problem is lots of people voted for her for different reasons, so its hard to say how much of them believe in a socialist agenda. Like some voted,
Just because shes a women.
Just because she was a dem.
Just because she was charismatic/pretty enough.
Just for something new.
Some voted because they hate old white people.
And so on. So i'm would really like to know, of all those people how many are Yay Socialism!
No, her district is about the size as everyone elses
That's the point
@Shadows You're correct, but that doesn't really make me feel any better. Anyone who's voting for people based on anything but their stance on the issues, shouldn't be voting in the first place, imo.
I get you but I doubt she'd win larger scale
@SpanishAbbey wait, what district elected her then?
I don't keep track of voting, so i don't care how big her district is lol.
The 14th district
I don't live in NY, so I don't know what that means.
her district is only 18% white
how does one district elect a congressperson for an entire state?
And most of those are (((whites))).
lol
50% hispanic, 16% asian, 11% black, 18% white, and the rest other
La raza too then I guess
Eh, Puerto Ricans are easier to convert to conservative I've found
I mean, I'm Puerto Rican lol
Ok, so 14th district is a random district of NYC. I'm still confused how this one district got AOC a congressional seat
and cubans
NY has 27 districts thus 27 congressional seats
oh, nm.
@Shadenir because the incumbent was a straight white male
AOC is one of those 27 reps from NY
in Current Year
she's a rep. brain farted for a min there
Lol
was thinking senate for some stupid reason
I'm guessing a lot of people voted for her because she was the Democrat and "you have to vote for the Democrat because the Republicans are racist" or something
It's okay <3
gee I feel stupid now... :P derp
@micamike45 I already said that!
2008/2012/2016 Dems got ~80% of the vote for prez
so this was no surprise
@Shadenir don't!
It happens to us all
Not to me.
@SpanishAbbey thank you!
Especially to Shadows
