AOC slams New York's 'whole damn Republican machine' amid local scandals
Raw StoryCARMEL, NY — All politics feel nationalized this election cycle, but many embattled congressional incumbents here in New York are bucking that trend by running on local scandals. “Democrats control everything” That episode may be why Lawler’s eager to discuss New York City scandals and disarray in Albany these days. “So most voters in the suburbs here are going, ‘Yeah, I don't want this.’” Those ‘suburbs’ are the sprawling, all-important burbs of New York City, where Mayor Eric Adams has also been making history. “I want my Democratic governor of New York to be a political animal — I want them to maximize Democratic power,” Jones told The New Yorker last month. “The majority runs through a very small number of seats, and, you know, flipping the New York seats alone could potentially flip the entire House,” Ocasio-Cortez told Raw Story.
