It is unclear what the Schumer-Ocasio-Cortez poll could mean for the New York primary in three years, however, with surveys this early rarely being predictive. Ocasio-Cortez has also been noncommittal about a potential Senate run. Schumer has filed paperwork to run for reelection.
It shouldn’t be surprising after what he did. Run a poll for two representatives in a state, one who is doing something and one that backstabbed efforts to help the public, I would hope the first is favored.
Is it indicative that Democrats in New York (and elsewhere, surely) are primed for the people they elected to grow spines? Sure. We knew that, I think.
Does it have anything at all to do with Schumer’s Senate seat three years from now? Not really.
This is a fluff piece, with zero real substance.
How so? It’s reporting on the surprising and interesting results of this new poll.

Schumer may not have known that, and now he does. And he knows we know it too. That’s why this is an interesting new piece.
I would hope she runs for president not senate.
