[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

This is
going to be a tough fight.

The first Census results are in. Based on the early numbers, New York will
lose either one or two of its representatives. Alexandria’s district could
be redrawn or scrapped into pieces. Lawyers, party leaders, and lawmakers
will be sitting down to determine the shapes and sizes of the new
districts.

We need to be prepared for whatever comes our way. We could be stuck with
a heated primary, a district with tons of new constituents, or an all-out
effort to lock Alexandria out of re-election. We just don’t know yet.

What we do know is that strong fundraising helps us keep AOC’s seat
secure. That’s why our $156,992 goal before our Thursday FEC deadline is
so important.

end-of-year FEC deadline are especially important.

Early Census numbers show that New York could lose two seats. Since 70% of
the House seats in New York are occupied by Democrats, the threat of our
district being chopped up or us being challenged to a serious primary is
no joke.

It’s worth noting here that this is all going according to the GOP
playbook. Donald Trump’s administration did whatever they could to
sabotage the Census this year in a way that would seriously undercount
communities with lots of immigrant families like New York’s 14th District.
Trump and his allies would much rather see New York lose a second seat
than Alabama lose one.

Thanks to contributions from people like you, we did all we could to fight
back against the GOP’s plan this summer, launching a $1 million effort to
register our district. That effort may end up being the difference between
New York losing one congressional seat or two.

But either way, we’ve got a fight ahead of us. We need the resources to
re-elect Alexandria no matter what happens. That’s where you come in:

[ [link removed] ]Add a $3 contribution today before our 12/31 FEC
deadline. Every dollar helps us edge closer and closer to our $156,992
goal by Thursday at midnight. 

As soon as we hear about the final Census allocation, we’ll report back.
Until then, we just have to remain vigilant heading into what could be a
tough fight this next year.

Thanks for all your support,

Team AOC
