Chuck Schumer might be in trouble.
According to a new poll from Data for Progress, he is trailing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez by double digits in the 2028 Democrat Senate Primary.
The poll found of the 770 likely Democratic voters that 55 percent of voters would support Ocasio-Cortez, 35, in a head-to-head match up in the 2028 New York primary.
Schumer, meanwhile, received a paltry 36 percent. Nine percent were undecided.
The young progressive also raked in a much higher favorability rating, according to the poll.
AOC received a net +59 favorability while Schumer registered a +26 favorability rating.
The poll shows Schumer losing support even among Democrats.
The poll is the latest sign that Schumer’s standing among the Democratic base has taken a hit since he voted to advance a GOP funding bill last month that avoided a government shutdown. The fact that Data for Progress conducted and released the poll also underscores that liberal organizations are continuing to look for ways to prod Schumer to take a tougher stance against President Donald Trump.
“This poll really does show that Democrats are united in just wanting to stand up, wanting to fight, wanting to see someone taking a stand for them,” said Danielle Deiseroth, executive director of Data for Progress.
Deiseroth added that her firm “has a long tradition of wanting to challenge the status quo of Democratic Party leadership” and released polling in 2021 showing then-Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema was vulnerable to a primary challenge. Sinema later registered as an independent and declined to run for reelection.
This is bad news for Chuck Schumer.
