AOC’s home base is seeing red.

Far-left Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s constituents swung toward President-elect Trump in Tuesday’s presidential election by one of the largest margins citywide.

In 2020, 77% of voters in AOC’s congressional district, which covers parts of the Bronx and Queens, cast their ballot for Joe Biden, while Trump snagged just 22%, according to an analysis of voting records by the progressive news outlet Daily Kos, which used the current district lines.

That yawning, 55-point gap was cut by nearly half this week, with Vice President Harris securing just under 65% of the ballots cast in NY-14 to Trump’s 33%, according to unofficial city voting records and the Daily Kos data.

“Everyone sees AOC as a darling of the left, and coming from a district that reflects those politics,” said Democratic strategist Jake Dilemani. But the part of the borough she represents is “one of the most conservative parts of the Bronx,” he added.

Her sprawling district also boasts sizable Latino and Asian populations, two groups that have recently shifted rightward and were crucial to Trump’s triumph, GOP political consultant Ryan Girdusky suggested.
