Honestly while I haven't followed her political career if I could make a guess the good news is her campaign won't get anywhere. Internet weirdos really think they can take on a democratic party political machine but I'm sure there's gonna be an establishment democrat or two that's gonna see that some internet weirdo is their main left-wing primary component and is gonna say "Game" and flood the race with money so hard that I'd be surprised if she gets a double digit primary vote.
Even if she does win, unless she's in a safe state then I'm sure she'll get cut off by the DNC for daring to run against their anointed democrat and will get absolutely smashed by a car dealership owner.
This was my first impression before even googling her, I wonder how close/far my speculation is to the truth
I was wrong about her being in district where she could lose to a republican but yeah I was right. Every medium sized half-urbanized area has "The Progressive Crank" that takes all of the air out of the room when it comes to forming an electoral opposition to the maineline democrat. My city's version of this is a local progressive who is well liked by some parts of the labor movement but the rest of the left stays away from due to his abusive behavior towards his former spouse.
