AOC surges past Buttigieg, leaves Harris in the dust in key 2028 battleground poll
Fox News ^ | July 22 2026 | Paul Steinhauser

Progressive firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has surged to the front of the prospective 2028 Democratic presidential field in New Hampshire, edging Pete Buttigieg and leaving Kamala Harris far behind in a new poll.

Ocasio-Cortez drew 22% support among likely Democratic primary voters in the University of New Hampshire Granite State Poll released Wednesday, one point ahead of former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and 17 points ahead of former Vice President Kamala Harris.

Ocasio-Cortez gained seven points since the February survey, while Harris and California Gov. Gavin Newsom lost ground — another sign of the New York lawmaker’s growing strength among Democratic voters in the early presidential battleground.

Ocasio-Cortez has been coy about her 2028 plans and careful not to rule out either a White House run in the race to succeed term-limited President Donald Trump, or a bid for the Senate against longtime Democratic Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, who is up for re-election in two years. When asked about a run for higher office, Ocasio-Cortez recently said her goal is to "change the country."

Buttigieg, a moderate who as the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana came in second in the 2020 New Hampshire presidential primary, has crisscrossed the country in support of fellow Democrats the past year as speculation builds around a possible 2028 run.

Clay Travis believes Harris will be the pick, again. I disagree. The Left is only consistent about one thing: a thirst for absolute power. Because of that they will not tolerate a loser.

AOC is attractive and can speak in understandable sentences, but she’s a hardcore communist. Sadly, she has a lot of support especially among the indoctrinated youth.

AOC in a debate against Vance or Rubio would be better than Trump and Biden.

It just needs to be scheduled before mail in ballots get sent out.

“””Clay Travis believes Harris will be the pick, again. I disagree. “”””

She already lost once after spending two billion dollars on a rigged election. Who would give her money?

Also, she would not be protected by the media like last time. She would be exposed for months during a real campaign.

So what? She'll lose in all seven swing states she'll need to win.

He must not be very smart.

Of course, if he had any intelligence, he would not dress like a homeless persosn.

I think there will be a knock-down-drag-out fight between AOC and John Fetterman’s wing of the Democrats

Just be careful. You could lose a member.

RT @justingoldchain: AOC has teeth like Luis Suarez
