Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide O000172.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the Democrat representative for the House from NY, district 14 in the 119th Congress. The chart uses the October 2026 snapshot. The position is Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score of the roll calls. Color is the party label. The place is the votes.
The first dimension is -0.333, drawn as economics -33. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is -0.943, drawn as authority -94. The other axis sits toward liberty. Voteview’s second dimension is not a pure social axis. The chart uses the public file anyway, rather than inventing a different number.
Inside the House, this first-dimension score ranks 143 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is right of the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.39). The nearest other House scores are Ilhan Omar (Democrat, -0.296), Ayanna Pressley (Democrat, -0.375), Rashida Tlaib (Democrat, -0.290). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
A short public-record note says: New York Democrat of the Squad. Her reputation is further left than this Congress’s roll-call score, which sits inside the Democratic cluster. The score is the placement. The sentence only names what the record is already known for.
One left-to-right score cannot say how Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would vote on a single bill. The identity and the vote file can be checked at congress.gov through bioguide O000172.
