\n Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez looks set to waltz to a second term as the self-described Democratic social<\/a>ist dominated her primary competition Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

The incumbent \u2014 almost better known by her initials, AOC, than her actual name \u2014 rolled to victory, claiming 73 percent of the ballots cast at the polls during early voting and on primary day, with 74 percent of precincts reporting.<\/p>\n

Her best-funded opponent \u2014 Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, a former Republican and financial news<\/a> reporter \u2014 had nabbed just 20 percent of the vote.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I won in 2018, many dismissed our victory as a \u2018fluke,\u2019 AOC tweeted as the vote counts rolled in. \u201cOur [2016] win was treated as an aberration, or bc my opponent \u2018didn\u2019t try.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo from the start, tonight\u2019s race was important to me,\u201d she added. \u201cTonight we are proving that the people\u2019s movement in NY isn\u2019t an accident. It\u2018s a mandate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ocasio-Cortez was expected to easily win the race, in which Caruso-Cabrera focused on her opposition to the Amazon headquarters deal for Long Island City, her far-left leanings as a leader of the congressional progressives and brought renewed attention to complaints she hasn\u2019t focused enough on constituent services.<\/p>\n

But her last-minute attack ads on Caruso-Cabrera gave some poll watchers reason to think she was vulnerable.<\/p>\n

AOC\u2019s heavily Democratic district covers portions of western Queens, including Astoria and Elmhurst, and the eastern portion of The Bronx.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
