Left-Wing Extremist Wins Democratic Primary in NY 14th Cong. Dist.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Fourteenth Congressional District in Queens, which is in Astoria, near to where I grew up, and the Bronx, has elected a left-wing extremist in its Democratic primary. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defeated moderate Democrat Joseph Crowley. The Journal opines that this will influence the Democratic Party to move further to the extreme left, and it observes that is not a cause for celebration. If the Democrats regain control of Congress, there will be further impetus toward totalitarian solutions, authoritarianism, political correctness, and socialism.
