Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., told a Texas crowd Saturday that it
is inevitable that Texas will turn blue as she endorsed two candidates for
Congress prior to the primary next month.
Ocasio-Cortez, who has had mixed results when endorsing candidates, was in
San Antonio to support the campaigns of Jessica Cisneros and Greg Casar.
MySanAntonio.com reported that Ocasio-Cortez told the crowd that the two
have her backing because they back Medicare for all, unions and
reproductive freedom.
"Here’s what’s exciting about Jessica’s race and Greg’s race…is that if we
flip Texas, we flip the country. She continued, "Texas turning blue is
inevitable. The only question is when. We are going to fight for a living
wage, we are going to make sure we unionize the hell out of this state…and
we’re going to make sure that not one dime is made exploitatively across
any worker, especially the undocumented."
Ocasio-Cortez did not immediately respond to an after-hours email from Fox
News.
The New York representative is not the first politician to imagine a world
where the Republican Party loses Texas’ crucial 38 electoral college
votes, which is a nightmare for the party. In September 2019, Sen. Ted
Cruz, R-Texas, said the state would be close in the 2020 presidential
election. (Former President Trump carried the state, winning 52.1% to
President Biden’s 46.5%)
