A new analysis of those who have given political contributions to socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) reelection campaign has reportedly found that only 10 contributors live inside her district.
"The FEC only requires that political campaigns disclose the names and addresses of individuals who contribute over $200 to their campaigns during an election," The Daily Caller News Foundation's Andrew Kerr reported. "The $1,525.50 Ocasio-Cortez received from her New York constituents represents less than 1% of her campaign's itemized contributions reported to the FEC in the first half of 2019."
While Ocasio-Cortez has outraised all other freshman representatives, the DCNF found that she falls significantly short of the average amount of money that freshman representatives have raised within their own districts.
"The average freshman representative's reelection campaign received $107,141.29 in itemized contributions from their constituents in the first half of 2019, FEC filings the DCNF analyzed show," Kerr writes. "Ocasio-Cortez's reported in-district fundraising haul of $1,525.50 was just 1.4% of that average."
Far-left Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) also rank near the bottom of the freshman class in terms of financial support they have received from their constituents.

Like Hussein, she was hand-picked by the Democrat Party to represent — the Democrat Party.
I’m sure Soros will step in an help her out.
Agree... Only 10 donors in her district of a suburb of NY city.
Wow that is pathetic!
I’m going to guess that most people in her district are embarrassed by her. I suspect that, unlike last time, a lot of people in her district are motivated to vote next time, and the motivation is to vote for whoever runs against her. I doubt she will survive the primary. And I am pretty confident there will be a primary.

There was talk that Cenk Fat Boy from the Young Turds was behind her and the other three and they were recruited to play a part. Cenk wants to kick out the moderates and wall streeters and make the Democrat party a true workers/socialist party like they have in Europe and other shithole countries.
Other speculate that the “Squad” was recruited the Trump campaign. But I doubt it, even though sometimes it seems that way lol
Practically no one in her district is helping to finance her campaign, and practically no one in her district will vote for her.
But she will win.
Unless challenged in the primary, she will win reelection, because too many of her constituents mindlessly vote Democrat.
Ocasio-Cortez could face trouble in 2022, because if New York loses congressional representation as a result of the 2020 census, she may find her existing district eliminated. She could be compelled to run against another Democrat in a contested primary to stay in Congress.
Though I’ve heard she wants to run for the Senate at some point. She could have sights set higher than a mere congressional seat. How about a promotion to being a “talking head” on MSNBC???? Some of those people make some good money.
In other words, Hollywood lefties, CPUSA, Soros, and others in the “Hate USA” crowd are fu ding her.
This is a bit hopeful. I’m sure the leftist extremists will pull out all the stops to get her re-elected.
Well, if anything she is an inspiration for bartenders everywhere. A true American rags to riches story.
They probably feel that she’s embarrassed them enough for one lifetime.
we should. What’s $10?
The Bronx is NYC. Not a suburb.
And in a kind of sick reciprocity, AOC does nothing to represent her district.
Where should I send my check?
There’s no way in hell the Democratic legislature of New York State will eliminate a safe Democratic House seat after the 2020 census.

Perhaps, if she shakes her money maker.
