8 OUTLETSAt a New York fundraiser, Ocasio-Cortez said an Abdul El-Sayed win in Michigan could show that progressive candidates can win nationwide. Center outlets connect the remarks to a broader progressive electoral project and also report Ocasio-Cortez’s planned campaign appearances with El-Sayed.
