Al Jazeera Reports Ilhan Omar Won Her Primary Overwhelmingly Without Support From AIPAC

We're thrilled that Democratic Socialist Francesca Hong was taken out of the Wisconsin gubernatorial race early Wednesday morning, but some races were just inevitable. Rep. Ilhan Omar won the Democrat primary for her district with a whopping 80 percent of the vote. Al Jazeera also noted in its coverage that Omar ran without support from AIPAC. They consider that breaking news.

It's true: The American Israel Public Affairs Committee neither endorsed Omar nor financially supported her campaign. Maybe they offered her millions that we don't know about, and she turned it down on principle.

More specifically, CAIR Action, its money arm.

Track AIPAC thinks this is some flex:

Omar fans are confident that Zionists are losing power and will continue to lose at the ballot box.

We'd look up the polls to see where they had put Omar, but there weren't any, because she didn't have a serious challenger. Congratulations, we guess, for showing you can win without being owned by the evil AIPAC.
