AOC viewed as best representative of Democrats ‘core values’ ahead of 2028 elections: Poll

Ten percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents polled picked the New York lawmaker, the most of any candidate, with former Vice President Kamala Harris placing second at 9%, followed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at 8%, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) at 6%. 

The survey painted a pessimistic picture for the Democratic Party as its members continue to debate about how to recoup from devastating losses during the 2024 elections.
