Ocasio-Cortez Backs Insurgent in Lt. Governor’s Race

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) will endorse Ana María Archila (D) in the race for New York Lt. Governor, the New York Times reports.

“Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is expected to appear at a rally for Ms. Archila on Monday, one day before the June 28 primary, and will also send out a fund-raising email. Ms. Archila’s campaign believes the endorsement will increase donors, volunteers and energize left-leaning Democrats to vote.”
