Redstreak 6,653 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Washington (CNN)The out-of-nowhere upset of Democratic Rep. Joe Crowley in Tuesday's New York primary has stunned the Democratic establishment and shook up the party's likely line of succession to become the next House speaker. Crowley was ousted from his Queens district by Democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a 28-year-old Latina running her first political campaign. She is now likely to be the youngest woman ever elected to the House. It was the most shocking result of 2018's political season so far, and -- though Democrats have avoided intra-party feuds so far this year -- could signal a restive base as the 2020 presidential primary approaches. "I'm floored," a senior Democratic House aide told CNN. https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/26/politics/tuesday-primaries-trump-new-york-south-carolina-maryland/index.html A progressive ICON Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

homomo 23,883 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Wow! Amazing for her. It’s so refreshing to see someone young like her in politics. When I was a child, I always saw old people as politicians on TV and the news, etc. I remember asking my mom this: “mom, why are all the politics people really old? Aren’t they going to die soon and nothing will matter to them?” and of course she laughed and agreed. 0110100001100101011011000110110001101111 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
