| Megathread: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wins NY primary over incumbent Rep. Joe Crowley Posted: 26 Jun 2018 08:12 PM PDT The fourth-ranking Democrat in the House has lost his bid for another term: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a 28-year-old activist who ran on abolishing ICE and making Medicare a universal program, defeated Rep. Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.) in an upset. Crowley is the first incumbent Democrat to lose renomination since 2016, when a Philadelphia Democrat was brought down by scandal.
