The New York Democratic congresswoman would narrowly defeat the likely Republican nominee 51 percent to 49 percent, according to the poll.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez holds a slight lead over Vice President JD Vance in a hypothetical 2028 presidential matchup, according to a new poll.

The New York Democratic congresswoman, known as AOC, edges the likely Republican nominee 51% to 49%, in The Argument/Verasight survey released on Tuesday. However, the result was within the poll’s 2.7 percentage point margin of error, making the two candidates statistically tied. The poll asked voters who they would vote for if the election was between the two of them.

    It’s only irrelevant if you’re intentionally ignoring facts which disagree with your conclusion

      Nope. It doesn’t disagree with anything, it’s just irrelevant. Two admittedly centrist women missed the vote to the most vile candidate possible, while countless centrist men won to slightly farther right opponents. That math is crystal clear, and Obama’s first election has no bearing on that.
