Longtime Rep. Joe Crowley lost his primary race on June 26 to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@ocasio2018), a 28-year-old activist from the #Bronx and member of the Democratic Socialists of America who rode an insurgent campaign to an unlikely victory. It was a stunning blow for Crowley, a 10-term congressman who was viewed as a possible successor to Nancy Pelosi and who hadn't faced a primary challenger in 14 years. But it was also a clear marker of the energy on the left: a record number of women are running for office this year, and the slate of candidates is far more diverse than typical. New York’s 14th District encompasses parts of the Eastern Bronx and Northern Queens, where the majority of voters are from minority backgrounds. The Woodside-born, Irish-American Crowley had remained popular in the district, where 54% of residents are Latino, 26% are African American and 5% are of Asian descent. But Ocasio-Cortez, photographed here by @andreskudacki in April, struck a nerve, in part by rejecting the New York City’s old political machinery. “Women like me aren’t supposed to run for office,” she said in a video that was shared widely online. The former aide to Sen. Ted Kennedy played up her working-class roots as well as liberal policy positions such as federal jobs and housing guarantees and the end of private prisons. All the while, she demanded that Congress abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement—a far-left position that set her apart from Crowley.
