AOC endorsed four NYC candidates in the slate described by the source: three Assembly challengers from NYC-DSA’s group, plus she had earlier endorsed Diana Moreno before Moreno’s special election, making four NYC-related endorsements in that article’s accounting.

What the source says

  • She endorsed Orkin, Celeste Tate, and Huntley from the Assembly challenger group.
  • The article also notes she and Mamdani had both endorsed Diana Moreno earlier this year before her special election.

Small caveat

The exact count can shift depending on whether you mean that one endorsement round or all NYC endorsements mentioned in the article. In the article’s broader tally, AOC’s NYC-linked endorsements are counted alongside Mamdani’s, and together they covered nine of the 10 NYC-DSA candidates.

TL;DR: In the source you likely mean, AOC endorsed 4 NYC candidates.
