Ocasio-Cortez speaks at Texas rally for young voters
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has emerged as a strong candidate for the 2028 presidential race, currently polling at 18.5%. She trails Pete Buttigieg at 26.7%, and her growing recognition has set her apart in a divided Democratic field. Democrats like Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) at 8.7% and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) at 4.1% have added to the fragmented race, with analysts warning the party lacks a clear leader.
