Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) is leading Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer by nearly 20 percentage points in a potential 2028 New York primary showdown, according to a new poll.
A majority of likely Democratic voters, 55 percent, said they supported or leaned toward backing Ocasio-Cortez, while only 36 percent favored Schumer, Politico reported based on the poll by left-wing think tank Data for Progress.
The poll marks another setback for Schumer, who has struggled to quell intraparty backlash over his vote to advance a Republican-led funding bill to avert a government shutdown. At least two House Democrats have openly called for his ouster, arguing that he is not doing enough to counter the Trump administration. A third Democrat said that other members of the caucus want Schumer out but “just haven’t been asked directly or avoided the question.”
“This poll really does show that Democrats are united in just wanting to stand up, wanting to fight, wanting to see someone taking a stand for them,” Data for Progress executive director Danielle Deiseroth told Politico.
Several House Democrats have privately urged Ocasio-Cortez to launch a primary challenge against Schumer. Even some centrist Democrats are “so mad” at Schumer’s vote that they are “ready to write checks” to fund her campaign, CNN reported.
Ocasio-Cortez has yet to signal whether she will enter the race, while Schumer has already filed for reelection, according to Politico.
Schumer, first elected to the Senate in 1998, has seen his support erode in recent years. After securing a fourth term in 2016 by a comfortable 43-point margin, Schumer won reelection in 2022 by only around 13 points.
what a depressing read to start my day
Instead of publishing irrelevant news like this, pay attention to the Jewish community in America. Left-wing anti-Israel organizations have captured and taken over virtually every “Jewish” organization, and are now ENEMIES of the Jewish people. The vast majority of Jews in America are not extreme left communist/progressive antisemites. These ENEMIES are waging an antisemitic war which will injured Jews. We do NOT support illegal immigration or any of their other extreme left-wing concerns. American Jewish groups are increasingly intruding into Israel politics to injure the majority government. A recent letter from 100 “Jewish” organizations representing anti-Israel, antisemitic policies, and supporting our ENEMIES represents a WAR on Jews and Israel. TJV is no doubt aware of this, and may have leftist sympathizers in its organization. He do not represent “Jewish” values, and in fact support our “Progressive” enemies, who place their partisan politics ahead of any concern for the Jewish people. Even with the historic grip of the now anti-Israel Democrat party on Jewish organizations, many Jews are now voting Republican. Readers of TJV should be kept INFORMED of the war against us by these “captured” organizations which have betrayed American Jews and the Jewish people.

Simple truth: it does not matter which Nazi Democrat leads the Nazi Democrat party.
