    Zach Montellaro Retweeted Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

    I mean this totally non-sarcastically: AOC's stream with a lot of super prominent streamers is probably going to be the single-largest event to reach young voters. Soooo many people tuned in. Probably going to be lost in the general internet illiteracy, but it was a huge streamhttps://twitter.com/AOC/status/1318772252792508416 …

        3rd highest ever twitch viewership. Still only around 400k though, and I doubt most of them are eligible to vote in the US.

        She deliberately mentioned this and told people that if they were too young to vote, to talk to their family members who could and told them how to help them make a voting plan.

        There will be a ripple effect. And she probably has gotten some younger people interested that weren’t before. People underestimate AOC at their own peril.

        Republicans don’t. That’s why they’re constantly trying to undermine and attack her. Constantly trying to Cut down the young tree before it grows.

        My 18-year-old hasn't paid attention to more than five minutes of this election cycle, but her and a half dozen of her friends just watched AOC and Ilhan play Among Us for like three hours tonight.

        And the wild thing about it wasn't that they were super impressed to see members of Congress playing games. They didn't care about that. They were blown away by 400,000 some people tuning into to watch gamer girls. That really resonated with them.

        Ehhhhh I think we're a generation away from what you're getting at, which is an already popular twitch streamer getting into politics. Not a popular politician getting into streaming(who knows if this will even happen again)

        I do agree that she and Omar are opening the door to that kind of outreach for future pols though, which is absolutely commendable
