'Socialism is toxic'
A new internal Democratic Party survey polling voter sentiment in crucial swing states revealed that controversial Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) are extremely unpopular and could cost Democrats both their House majority and the presidency in 2020.
According to Axios, the poll discovered that:
"If all voters hear about is AOC, it could put the [House] majority at risk," a top Democratic source told Axios. "[S]he's getting all the news and defining everyone else's races."
"Socialism is toxic to these voters," the source added.
The poll is significant, according to Axios, because it shows that "Democrats are sounding the alarm that swing voters know and dislike socialism, warning it could cost them the House and the presidency."
The poll, conducted in May, polled 1,003 likely general election white voters who have less than two years of college education.
