A political movement has started, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is on her way to make history.
On Tuesday night, the 28-year-old New York Democratic primary candidate knocked longtime Democratic Representative Joseph Crowley, who was being considered to take over as Speaker of the House, out of the running.
After the results were announced, Spectrum News NY1 shared a video of Ocasio-Cortez learning she'd won the majority votes of New York’s 14th Congressional District. Her reaction is truly one of the greatest things we've ever seen.
Please try not to cry tears of joy as you watch Ocasio-Cortez widen her eyes, scream, and give a passionate speech thanking all her supporters.
"I cannot put this into words," she said.

Prior to the election, Ocasio-Cortez's campaign video — in which she declared, "women like me aren't supposed to run for office. I wasn't born to a wealthy or powerful family... mother from Puerto Rico, dad from the South Bronx" — gained some serious buzz.
And a photograph being shared online shows Ocasio-Cortez worked as a bartender less than a year ago in Nov. 2017.

Now, the 28-year-old is on her way to becoming the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.
