On Tuesday, Ohio voters headed to the polls for many highly anticipated races, including in the Cleveland area where Democrat Rep. Shontel Brown faced a rematch of a previous special election against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) chosen far-left candidate Nina Turner.
Fox News reports:
The Associated Press called the 11th District primary for Brown, D-Ohio, shortly before 10:30 p.m.
Both Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and President Biden jumped into the race at the last second. Biden announced his support for Brown last week, and Ocasio-Cortez backed Turner on Monday, the day before the primary.
But even before the endorsements, Brown had most of the establishment backing in the race while Turner, a top surrogate for Sen. Bernie Sanders‘ 2016 and 2020 presidential campaigns, was backed by many on the left.
The victory for Brown in the Cleveland-based district is a loss for Ocasio-Cortez, who has an effective record of endorsing Democratic primary challengers. She supported Rep. Cori Bush, D-Ohio, who beat former Rep. Lacy Clay, D-Mo., and Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., who unseated former Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y. Ocaio-Cortez herself beat former Rep. Joe Crowley, D-N.Y., to enter Congress in 2018.
Now, this is the second time the AOC-backed candidate has lost to the more establishment pick, which could be a bellwether for other races across the nation. Many of Ocasio-Cortez’s chosen candidates still have primaries in New York, runoffs in Texas, and races across the nation.
This dump should be never elected in first place. Her qualification is bartender and even this should be revalidation before even take her back. Time for this clown go back she came.
She was a dud as a bar maid , why do you think she entered politics ?
So she could afford kneepads ?
Typical New Yorker illiterates!
She is a stone idiot!!! I was in hospitality for over 40 years. Never ever trusted any bartender. They were never totally trustworthy v
Probably why New Yorkers elected her….. they felt she was like them!!!
lol lol
And to prove that, they will keep re-electing her because NY voters aren’t very bright!!!
lol
Good! Ocasio-Cortez-Cortez is an idiot! The more losses for her, the better! Now, New Yorkers, vote the braying ass OUT and get a real candidate with a brain! Ummmm, that would be a Republican!
She is a poor excuse for a human being
She’s a poor excuse for anything , forget about a human being
Kamala is dumber than a box of AOCs!
AOC is as bad as Brandon, smart candidates don’t need their endorsements. The kiss of death.
AOC is another controlling leftist idiot! Vote her out of office IMMEDIATELY so WE may go forward with OUR lives!!!!!
She doesn’t realize how toxic she is. It’s as bad as Hillary, Nancy, Maxine…tke your pick.
Excellent choices for comparison! That said, goes to show you how illiterate half of the American people really are!
IT’S ABOUT TIME!
Who would listen to that brain dead bartender?
AOC was So DUMB that she made a Video where she flipped a switch and The Garbage Disposal came on… SHE WONDERED WHAT THAT NOISE WAS ???? DUMB DITZ !
Nina Turner was defeated in the primaries some months ago, and it was partly due to her radical support for the Palestinians during the Hamas attacks against Israel. Brown has always been careful not to offend Jewish voters, and AOC is cut from the Nina Turner cloth.
