According to a recent analysis, socialist Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez only received 10 donations from contributors in her district for her re-election campaign.





"The FEC only requires that political campaigns disclose the names and addresses of individuals who contribute over $200 to their campaigns during an election," Andrew Kerr of the Daily Caller reported. "The $1,525.50 Ocasio-Cortez received from her New York constituents represents less than 1% of her campaign's itemized contributions reported to the FEC in the first half of 2019."

Ocasio-Cortez has raised a substantial amount of money however almost none of it has come from the district she serves.

"The average freshman representative's reelection campaign received $107,141.29 in itemized contributions from their constituents in the first half of 2019, FEC filings the DCNF analyzed show," Kerr continues. "Ocasio-Cortez's reported in-district fundraising haul of $1,525.50 was just 1.4% of that average."

This isn't the only bad news Ocasio-Cortez has received. According to a door to door poll, Ocasio-Cortez is very unpopular:

They don't like her. She has a more than 2:1 ratio of unfavorable (50.88%) to favorable (21.37%) in public opinion.

They don't trust her. Only 10.75% thought she had their best interests in mind in quashing the Amazon deal – 32.60% said she didn’t.

They don't want her. 33.44% are ready to vote against her, and only 13.30% would vote for her.

Check out what the Daily Wire had to say in relation to Ocasio-Cortez's failure within her own district:

Poor polling and fundraising from within her own district reinforces the notion that while Ocasio-Cortez has tremendous ability to influence the news cycle and to change what is being talked about it in U.S. politics, she does not seem to have that much political power within her own district.

Earlier this month, Tiffany Cabán, a far-left candidate for Queens D.A., who was backed heavily by Ocasio-Cortez, lost the race for the Democrat nomination to establishment favorite Melinda Katz.

"The pitched seven-week battle for the Democratic nomination for Queens district attorney finally ended on Tuesday, when Tiffany Cabán, whose bid galvanized progressive activists nationwide and exposed deep rifts within the left, conceded to Melinda Katz, the favorite of the state party's establishment," The New York Times reported. "The result was a vindication for the Queens Democratic Party, which was left reeling last year after the defeat of former Representative Joseph Crowley by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez."

In March, left-leaning Vox reported: "A Quinnipiac poll released on Thursday morning found that 23 percent of Americans had a favorable view of the member of Congress, while 36 percent had an unfavorable view — a -13 overall approval rating ... This new poll isn’t a one-off finding. Three prior surveys — one in January from Morning Consult, one in February from Fox, and a third in mid-March from Gallup — all found that more Americans had negative views of AOC than had positive ones."
