    Those trying to dismiss the Ocasio-Cortez win as a "fluke" owing to "demographics" not only reveal their arrogance, but they're also ignoring the actual data http://www.gothamgazette.com/state/7774-a-closer-look-at-voter-turnout-in-2018-new-york-congressional-primaries …pic.twitter.com/jDWIllKkq6

        Any Congressional primary has low turnout, but that doesn't mean you can't draw certain limited conclusions based on the data at hand. Conclusions most relevant here are largely about the Dem activist base

        Also notable that she barely (if at all?) mentions trump .. just her message.

        It’s like they’ve never considered that a working-class candidate, espousing values and policies beneficial to the working class, might appeal to working-class voters. I mean I know there isn’t a strong tradition of class consciousness in the American commentariat but come onnnn

        Just spitballing here... Wasn’t it actually more about the ~10% turnout?

        Another word for "fluke" is "election victory", and another word for "demographics", is "voters".

        I'm convinced. But can somebody please present a clear explanation as to why Sanders failed in NY in 2016 but Ocasio won? It seems there are some important differences that need to be understood before a general template can be reliably deduced.

        @SteveKornacki cited passive factors (demographics, Crowley’s complacency) instead of ground game & platform for @Ocasio2018 ‘s win when he interviewed her yesterday. I usually respect his analysis, but this was a superficial conclusion.

        I spoke to a friend who gets the news mostly by reading the NYT. He was blindsided and agreed there is a problem with the paper. And it’s a recurring one (coverage of Sanders campaign, infamous Clinton /Trump gauge...)

        NYT is trying to influence its readers more than it wants to inform them. If a revolution was to start tomorrow (I’m not saying one is but let’s assume it), NYT readers would be clueless and shocked, just like when Trump got elected.
