The democratic socialist who won a June primary election to unseat the No. 4 Democrat in the House is apparently still working on responding to more than 1,000 media requests her campaign staff have received since her victory.
A spokesman for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told the Daily Beast’s Gideon Resnick that the campaign is “over 1,000 emails deep” with press requests one week after the 28-year-old defeated Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-N.Y.) in the June 26 Democratic primary.

Ocasio-Cortez responded to a tweet from Resnick, confirming the figure and adding that she faced another 600 unread text messages, some apparently including requests for interviews, on her personal phone.
This is 100% true and I also have 600 unread text messages on my phone.
I am responding to them in no particular order at this point, so don’t be offended if you haven’t heard back! It’ll take a minute.
Patience, grace, and generosity are appreciated https://t.co/MTWMXHs7j0
