A new poll has found that Democrat and left-leaning voters view either progressive Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or “no one” as the face of their party.
The party has faced a serious identity crisis after Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency and Kamala Harris’s failed presidential campaign.
A newly released Co/efficient poll of approximately 1,400 voters found:
“Currently, there is no consensus on the face of the Democrat Party, as a majority of voters either give the title to AOC (26%) or simply say there is none (26%). Bernie Sanders falls in a distant second, followed by a handful of others who fail to reach double digits.”
There has been growing speculation that the congresswoman from New York might be preparing for a 2028 presidential bid.
A recent AP/NORC poll found that 55 percent of Democrat voters hold a positive opinion of Ocasio-Cortez.
“Fifty-five percent of Democrats have a positive opinion of Rep. Ocasio-Cortez of New York, compared with only 8% of Republicans,” the AP reported.
The Independent reports:
In a matchup between Democratic primary candidates, a Data for Progress poll found that 75 percent of New York Democratic primary voters favored Ocasio–Cortez over many other candidates, including Chuck Schumer.
Party favorability is likely linked to Ocasio–Cortez’s aggressive anti-Trump stance, which polling and fundraising have consistently shown voters want.
She pushes back against Republicans in congressional hearings consistently, uses social media to criticize the Trump administration and recently embarked on a tour with Senator Bernie Sanders to boost Democratic morale.
