Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed New York state party leadership on Wednesday after election returns showed the Empire State trending to the right, calling on the president of the group to resign.
“NYS Dem party leadership, which was gutted under [former New York Gov. Andrew] Cuomo [D], stuffed with lobbyists, works to boost GOP, and failed to pass a basic state ballot measure to protect NY redistricting, must be accountable,” Ocasio-Cortez“I called for Jay Jacob’s resignation a year ago and I still hold that position,” she added, referring to the New York State Democratic Party president.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul , however, still fended off a challenge from Rep. Lee Zeldin , securing her first full term as chief of the Empire State after assuming the role following Cuomo’s resignation over sexual harassment allegations.
