A newly released internal poll of Democratic swing voters found that just 9 per cent have a favorable view of Rep. Ilhan Omar while just 22 per cent view Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez favorably.
The poll “included 1,003 likely general-election voters who are white and have two years or less of college education,” reports Axios.
The results validate the concerns of many Democrats that the party is moving too far left and losing moderate voters in the process.
Ocasio-Cortez was recognized by 74% of voters in the poll with just 22% having a favorable view.
Rep. Ilhan Omar fared even worse, with just 9% having a favorable view with her being recognized by 53% of the voters.
Socialism was viewed favorably by 18% of the voters and unfavorably by 69%, while capitalism was 56% favorable and 32% unfavorable.
According to one top Democrat, “socialism is toxic to these voters,” a message that doesn’t seem to be resonating with fringe voices in the party, who keep on promoting it.
By making people like Omar and AOC the face of the party, Democrats risk losing the House and the presidency, but their obsession with Trump Derangement Syndrome hysteria surrounding non-existent “concentration camps” appears to show no sign of slowing.

Disgraceful.
Hope the ones who stayed home realize what a socialist-communist future America would be like for decades to come.
and keep in mind that these extremely dismal results are from a poll of JUST registered Democrats considered “swing” voters ... can you imagine what a poll on non-affiliated voters is going to find? Not good for the Dems, not good at all!
Trump by a landslide in 2020! He might even win the popular vote this time, especially if Putin can lend a bigger hand than in 2016 ...
oops, i just went to the source article in Axios:
and the poll is of 1,003 likely general-election voters who are white and have two years or less of college education, not swing voters at all per se.
The claim by Axios is that it’s a leaked internal poll.
If so, the results are still dismal, and SHOULD be a wakeup call to the Dems, assuming that any actual adults still remain in Dem leadership positions, which is seeming less and less likely given the increasingly insane positions advocated by Warren, Innslee, and Harris during the past couple of days ...
9% and they are all somalis in Minneapolis
