Let's Go to the Federal Election Commission to See the Numbers in the 14th Congressional Race

 

This came in from the Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez campaign to us

Our opponent’s first wave of attack ads just arrived in NY-14 neighborhoods. Take a look:

This is just the tip of the iceberg. With $1,000,000 to spend, our opponent can afford tens of thousands more of these – plus television, radio, and digital ads to attack our principles.

When we’re asking for your support, we don’t expect every person to give. But we ask because we know that when you can support the cause, you will. That’s how this transformative movement works. It’s a whole lot of people doing their part to make something great.

We have to correct the record. That’s why we set a $1,000,000 goal for August – to MATCH what our opponent has on hand to attack us.

EDITOR'S NOTE:

Let's go to Federal Elections Commission to find out the truth about this, and how much money AOC has on hand.
