Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just can't lose, even winning races where her name doesn't appear on the ballot.
In June, she defeated 10-term Rep. Joe Crowley in New York's 14th congressional district Democratic primary, and on Tuesday, she won the primary in the 15th congressional district as a write-in candidate for the Reform Party. Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that while she's "honored that so many Bronxites are excited about our campaign, I will remain the Dem nominee for NY-14."
