I recall a few people here speculating that AOC only won because of low turnout in the NY-14 primary. Well…see last point in this tweet - everything’s relative:

How did we do it?

Ocasio2018 supporters nationwide:
✅ Knocked on over 120,000 doors
✅ Made over 170,000 phone calls
✅ Sent 100k+ text messages
✅ **INCREASED voter turnout by 68% (!!)** over the last off-year midterm primary

The power of grassroots organizing is real.
