Obama Releases List of Endorsements, Snubs Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Former President Barack Obama released his list of election candidate endorsements on Monday, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was nowhere to be seen.

“I’m proud to endorse this diverse and hopeful collection of thoughtful, empathetic, and highly qualified Democrats,” tweeted Obama. “If you’re in one of their districts or states, make sure you vote for them this fall. And if you can, vote early—by mail or in person.”

In the list of 118 endorsements across 17 states - including California, New York, Illinois, and Texas - Obama gave his blessing to candidates for the House, Senate, and state positions.

Six of the endorsements were for New York, and included democratic socialist Jamaal Bowman, who beat Rep. Eliot Engel in the Democratic primary last month.

Obama is a dirtbag, but he isn’t politically retarded.

The article said he endorses her later. BS headline.

So, did the kenyan merely ignore that race, or did the kenyan actually endorse an AOC opponent?

"...included democratic socialist Jamaal Bowman, who beat Rep. Eliot Engel "

The socialists have learned to replace democrats in the primaries.

The primaries are the most important place to vote- this is where you can easily unseat a RINO. Sometimes only a dozen vote can do it, because so few people vote in primaries

Hardly a snub. She is assured of re-election. An endorsement is pointless.

“Former President Barack Obama released his list of election candidate endorsements”

I hope it’s the kiss of death for all of them.

Why the push to vote early? Don't people want to hear all the facts before casting their vote?

The Kenyanesian Usurper’s endorsement is usually the kiss of death, All Out Communist should consider herself lucky.
