Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez does not rule out 2022 challenge to Chuck Schumer
CNN
New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez does not know what her political future holds -- and that includes whether she might challenge Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer in a 2022 primary.
Asked by CNN's Dana Bash if she is considering a campaign against her fellow New Yorker next year, Ocasio-Cortez said she had not seriously considered it, but also stopped short of ruling out a run. "I know it drives everybody nuts. But the way that I really feel about this, and the way that I really approach my politics and my political career is that I do not look at things and I do not set my course positionally," Ocasio-Cortez told Bash in "Being...AOC," the first episode of the new CNN series "Being..." that airs Monday night at 9 p.m. ET.More Related News
