Statistically irrelevant, but I'm still wrong? k thx It appears like Crowley wanted to get out.

I took a look at your numbers and realized you pointed out the low voter turn out (29K total) was for the democratic primary for her district. She won the general election by nearly 90K of a total 141K votes. General was down 30K from previous election.

I think we're both saying the same thing. We just don't agree that race was a "basic Justice Democrat strategy" in that race. I think it was for both the primary and general. I don't disagree with you about claiming a movement. She sure as hell didn't get elected on her well thought out positions and use of facts.



EDIT: I'd add that she probably got elected on looks alone. She was the best looking candidate in that race.

Mr. Sowell nailed it perfectly.

Overdue Tax Bill For Ocasio-Cortez***8217;s Failed Business Remains Unpaid

A tax warrant against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez***8217;s failed business venture remains open over six months after her office said the unpaid state taxes would be promptly paid back.

The state of New York issued a tax warrant in July 2017 against Brook Avenue Press, a Bronx-based children***8217;s books publisher Ocasio-Cortez founded in 2012, for $1,618.36 in unpaid corporate taxes.

New York issues tax warrants against businesses if they ***8220;fail to timely resolve***8221; their tax debt and don***8217;t respond to notices of their debt, according to the New York Department of Taxation and Finance.

The New York Post first spotted the New York Democrat***8217;s unpaid tax bill in early March. An Ocasio-Cortez spokesman told The Post at the time that it was the first they had heard of her business***8217;s unpaid taxes and that the balance would be paid right away.

Former Ocasio-Cortez spokesman Corbin Trent told The Post her lawyers were looking into the matter in a March 23 story noting that the back taxes remained unpaid.
[...]

Ocasio-Cortez presumably has the means to pay off her business***8217;s unpaid taxes with a congressional salary of $174,000.

Ocasio-Cortez***8217;s office did not respond to the DCNF***8217;s request for comment.

New York state dissolved Ocasio-Cortez***8217;s company in 2016 using a procedure reserved for corporations that fail to pay taxes for at least two years or fail to file tax returns.

Ocasio-Cortez reported she was the founder of Brook Avenue Press in her financial disclosure report filed with the House of Representatives in May.

As a member of Congress, Ocasio-Cortez has called for tax rates up to 70% on income earners at the ***8220;tippy tops***8221; to fund her signature policy proposal, the Green New Deal, which would fully decarbonize the U.S. by 2030.

Ocasio-Cortez sang a different tune on taxes as a small business owner in 2012 when she came out in support of a bill that would provide tax deductions for business start-up costs.

***8220;You don***8217;t really make a profit in your first year,***8221; Ocasio-Cortez told the now-defunct DNAinfo when she was trying to get Brook Avenue Press off the ground. ***8220;To get taxed on top of that is a real whammy.***8221;

Im all for people not paying income taxes but why is it that those who constantly talk about raising taxes, consuming taxes through socialistic programs, have a really hard time paying theirs?

rules for thee, but none for (((me)))

That should be the motto for socialism.

Also do these hollywood celebrities and musicians lining up for this **** realize they would not be where they are in a socialist society?

they've never had to grow up so, like all other 16-year-olds having rock star fantasies, they truly believe that they will be happy with "the one" they love and "enough" to keep the lights on in a 5th floor loft (somehow rented at $500/mo or less) in one of their beloved modern day ****hole coastal cities

not one of them is a sell out. they are wealthy because the public genuinely loves their ~perpetually enduring art~

Thank you.

Vanster, you don't get a free pass to keep a black man down by religiously backing a minimally brown woman.

You know how I know it is all bull****? Because the solutions offered by the dems/left/******s don't even address potential fixers for something that ain't broke.

What does spreading wealth have to do with the weather?

This, someone like Taylor Swift pushing her LGBTQ agenda, while ragging on Trump. She wanted a bill passed and asked why it's not being done if the president supports LGBTQ. The answer is the bill had poison pills in it.

Taylor and the others have basically alienated half their audience by becoming political. Probably pushed by the record label executives, with the agenda coming Soros.

A socialist society needs propaganda actors. Taylor Swift pushing LGBTQ agenda is exactly that.

Being very good looking, having a talent and willingness to sell the party line for special favors is big in socialist societies.
