“The leader of the Working Families Party shrugged off the ruling by Supreme Court Judge Phillip Hom and vowed the labor-backed group would still actively campaign for AOC.”
What? They have no alternative candidate who CAN get 15 party-member signatures? Do they even have 15 members?
It doesn’t look like it. As you recall, Joe Crowley won
the WFP line last time out but since he lost the Democrat primary, he chose to not actively campaign.
Hmm...since there are no filed candidates, does the party committee choose a candidate? I’m guessing so, and it sounds like they’re going with AOC.
