Democratic New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez bashed former President Donald Trump throughout her speech at the opening night of the Democratic National Convention Monday, while highlighting Vice President Kamala Harris’ promises to working class Americans.

Progressives won’t sell across NY. It ain’t Vermont. She currently represents a D+15 district where that doesn’t matter what that much.

That said, it all depends on where the votes come from and that’s the blue population centers. So while she may not sell across the state, she may sell in enough of the right places to make it.
