This popped up in the news a week ago. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/bernie-sanders-aoc-endorse-charles-booker-in-kentuckys-us-senate-primary/ar-BB15fAna

I haven't seen anything since.

Not a fan of Bernie. Love AOC.

I don't get this endorsement, what with Amy McGrath polling very well and with widespread Democratic support.

What gives?

The candidates they support have poor track records winning primaries and elections. However, I must say that I completely admire AOC's work in congress and advocacy in public media.
