Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may seek the Oval Office in 2028, according to allies who have discussed her future political path.

Figures close to the matter report that the Democratic Congresswoman is also considering taking on Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer amid the party’s growing needs for younger voices. Schumer, a New York Senator, is up for re-election in 2028.

“Why wouldn’t she be considering this?” said a knowledgable source to The Hill. “She’s one of the biggest voices in the Democratic Party, she fundraises like no one else, and she’s authentic and true to herself. Can’t say that about a lot of other people in the party.”

AOC’s decision to take office or challenge Schumer, who is up for re-election in 2028, could redefine the Democratic party’s trajectory.
