Following Democratic victories in the 2026 midterm elections, progressive activists are moving to capitalize on their newfound political momentum.
A grassroots organization called Ready For AOC has launched a signature-gathering effort aimed at encouraging the New York congresswoman to seek the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028.
The campaign comes as the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) reportedly prepares to consider whether to formally support an Ocasio-Cortez presidential bid.
