Nolte: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Tops JD Vance in 2028 Presidential Poll

John Nolte 17 Dec 2025

In a hypothetical 2028 presidential race, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) beats Vice President JD Vance nationally by two points, 51 to 49 percent.

President AOC?

“The New York Democratic congresswoman, known as AOC, edges the likely Republican nominee 51 percent to 49 percent, in The Argument/Verasight survey released on Tuesday,” reports the far-left Newsweek. “However, the result was within the poll’s 2.7 percentage point margin of error, making the two candidates statistically tied. The poll asked voters who they would vote for if the election was between the two of them.”

The poll shows that Vance leads with white voters, 57 to 43 percent. AOC, however, wins 79 percent of black voters and 64 percent of Hispanics. Men choose Vance at 54 percent, while women go with AOC at 56 percent.

This poll of 1,521 registered voters taken between December 5 and 11 also found that eight percent of Trump voters would move to AOC.

But can AOC win the 2028 Democrat presidential primary?

There are reports that 2024 loser Kamala Harris is looking to run again in 2028, and a recent poll showed her as the Democrat favorite against all comers. Harris earned 31 percent support, compared to 20 percent for Gov. Gavin Newsom and ten percent for former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro came in fourth with 6.4 percent. AOC landed in fifth with 6.3 percent.

Another recent poll, however, showed more optimistic results for AOC, where she’s in third place with 16 percent support. Newsom leads with 25 percent support. Harris comes in second with 18 percent. Buttigieg is in the mix with a fourth place finish at 14 percent.

In that same poll, AOC does lead with voters under age 34 with 32 percent support.

No one has announced a 2028 presidential run yet, and it’s unlikely anyone will until after the 2026 midterm elections. As of now, there’s little question Newsom plans to run for the Democrat slot or that Vance will go for the Republican nomination.

If Vance runs, based on the current lay of the land, he will likely clear the field of any serious competition.

Newsom might be seen as the current Democrat frontrunner, but one thing he is not doing is clearing the field. If Harris and Shapiro jump in, you’re looking at a real fight. If Buttigieg and AOC are added to the mix, it’s all up for grabs.

My hope is that AOC runs and wins the nomination to face Vance. That’s why I’m encouraging her to run by elevating this poll.

AOC is working harder than an ugly stripper to work a poll.

If AOC can beat Vance I'll be convinced I'm on the Titanic.

If AOC can beat Vance I'll be convinced I'm on the Titanic.

Well, I'm not one for polls as I don't see them as very reliable, however, AOC appeals to the crowd that wants something for doing nothing and feel that the are owed.  Unfortunately, that's the mindset of our youth these days.  They have been indoctrinated by the liberal school system.

Secondly, I firmly believe that Charlie Kirk played a large part in getting that particular group to think in a logical sense, restore patriotism within them and help them to understand what was at stake.

We need several Charlie Kirk's in play. 

I do see AOC running and with the DEMS cheating and fraudulent voting she  may have a chance .... even against Vance, though I think that Trump and the RNC have zeroed in on those problems.  What that's going to look like in '28 is hard to tell.

[mountaineer]

Wasn't this a Canadian poll? At any rate, I question its reliability.

[Sighlass]

BS...

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

Wish Vance had run instead of Trump.

[LMAO]

First, AOC is not going to  be the Democratic Party nominee

But I would not dismiss her chances if that happened. Or somebody with her political positions.

[Canuck Conservative]

As an outsider, I gotta point out that Vance comes across as rather cold and not very charming

So he might do OK with some men, but he won't poll well with women ... which is death in modern politics ... just sayin

Republicans can't do any better??

Good point.

Perhaps, but I think women will appreciate his authentically loving interactions with his wife and children.

Excerpt:
The 2028 presidential race is still years away, but Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) couldn't resist throwing shade at Vice President JD Vance when asked if she could beat him in a hypothetical matchup. Outside the Capitol on Wednesday,  a reporter from Migrant Insider caught up with AOC and popped the question: "Do you think you could beat JD Vance in a head-to-head race for president, as polling suggests, in 2028?" Her response? A cackling "I would stomp him. I would stomp him!"—a moment that's already being compared to Kamala Harris' infamous laughter, complete with the same overconfidence.



We pray you run against JD Vance. Your campaign ads alone would be Emmy-nominated comedy that patriots would meme.

Maybe those polled believed they were voting on who could make the best bar drink?

I believe you hit the nail on the head.

We need people to lead the country based upon their looks, not their abilities and accomplishments.

I think Vance is more personable than AOC and I'm legit trying to be as objective as possible. She has the approximate likability of Kamala.

[Wingnut]

She has the approximate likability of Kamala.

And the same number of functioning brain cells.

Well I would never vote for someone that looks like a donkey, or sounds like a braying ass when they laugh, just sayin. Call me shallow but I gotta go with intelligence, abilities and accomplishments.

Here's some of what you miss on the outside  @Canuck Conservative

[Timber Rattler]

The New York Democratic congresswoman, known as AOC, edges the likely Republican nominee 51 percent to 49 percent, in The Argument/Verasight survey released on Tuesday.

Never heard of it before.  I want to see the sampling and methodology but that doesn't seem to be available anywhere.  Therefore this is probably utter nonsense.
