Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has overtaken California Governor Gavin Newsom in prediction market odds for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination for the first time, according to data from Polymarket highlighted Wednesday by the political-tracking account InteractivePolls.
The market showed Ocasio-Cortez at 18 percent, narrowly ahead of Newsom at 17 percent. Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff ranked third at 16 percent, while former Vice President Kamala Harris stood at 8 percent.
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro each came in at 5 percent.
The shift marks a notable moment in the still-early race to shape the Democratic field ahead of the 2028 election. While neither Ocasio-Cortez nor Newsom has officially launched a presidential campaign, both have long been viewed as potential contenders representing different wings of the Democratic Party.
Ocasio-Cortez is a leading progressive voice in Congress, while Newsom has emerged as one of the party's most prominent establishment figures and has frequently been mentioned as a future White House candidate.

She’s a commie, Jim.
Maybe the reason she’s braking up with her redhead guy is he told her , girl you’re too stupid to be president ,LOL
Frigg’n unbelievable...only goes to show...they have no one...
That’s why she kicked her boyfriend to the curb, she cant use the “Tax the rich” line, while being married to one
nah, its optics, she cant run with “Tax the rich” if her boyfriend/husband, is one himself
So the party of FDR, Harry Truman, JFK, Lyndon Johnson, Hubert Humphrey has come this.
A political , economic and historical illiterate with a big rack and buck teeth is the ‘’new face’’ of The Democrat Party.
She’s ambitious. Her “stupid” boyfriend was in the way.
Have these people never heard this chick try to answer a question?? She always sounds like she has never particularly thought about this issue until that moment.
except for BHO (or whatever his real name many have been) neither party has ever nominated any worse candidates than today’s Commie-Islamic-Nazi-captured DNC.
The American people deserve a plausible choice at the polls.
How about a RICO prosecution of those who are controlling today’s DNC party central machine? Clean it up/out. Then regular Democrats will regain a voice and the nation’s voters will regain a decent choice.
Doesn’t mean that much this far out from the election.
They must be laughing and crying at the same time. She’s a pathetic piece of crap.
The Frump and the Lump
She can get the buck teeth fixed if she cares. I doubt any votes well hinge on the teeth.
But she's female and that will get a lot of the female vote, same as happened for Hillary and Kamala.
And the big rack will get a lot of the male vote, because if you have to have a female national figurehead, she should as a minimum have a great rack. The long dark hair doesn't hurt either.
Remember, women have traditionally chosen between male candidates based on their hair.
We like to think men are more rational, but given a great set of boobs to stare at for four years... let's just say that a lot of guys will turn the sound down and enjoy the show.
AOC is slower than steam off a dog turd.
Great news!! I can’t wait to see her in a debate with Vance, Desantis, Rubio, Cruz or any leading Republican. There might just be some of the most hysterical comedy material ever heard from the Princess of Stupid.
I like that! Hope you don't mind if I steal it....
I still think PORN would've been a better career for her because she is STUPID AND HOT.
All of them, and many more, will throw their Hammer & Sickle in the race, form many Nonprofits/PACS in order to fill their wallets with $$$$. The Drive-By Media will provide 24/7 free advertising.
