At least, I don't remember AOC specifically saying "Vote like your life depends on it -- because it does!"

,,,like Barack and Mitch Obama, Pete Buttgieg, many other politicians, Reddit, MSNBC, and most other corporate news outlets....

I don't see her giving them any of the blame, nor those who minimized and refused to consider, investigate, or entertain the possibility of election problems, to a very concerned public.

When judges refused to take accept or even review evidence in election fraud cases, due to brand new interpretations of jurisdiction, ballot officials stonewall and block investigations, everyone who attempts to question or investigate election issues is immediately attacked with retaliations by attacking their employers, their bar association, or dark money spending millions to sue them, before they can complete their investigations. All while corporate news stations and government alike, colluded to hide, downplay, mislead, and propagandize the public into not questioning the overt problems they saw with the dumpster fire pandemic election where battle ground states didn't follow their own election laws and Facebook money payed private companies to oversee ballot counting in battle ground state's biggest counties.

I suggest this incited the bipartisan and mostly-non-violent protest and civil uprising on Jan 6th, 2021. People on both sides hate that these same large counties pull questionable bullshit each election, but assumed it is just some one-off minor stuff, until the 2020 election, where the only election security allowed in many states, bipartisan ballot observers, were blocked out, pushed into corners, tricked into leaving with fake water main breaks, and ballots were counted largely unsupervised, chaotic piles of insecure thumb drives were handled largely by Dominion employees, when that was their lame excuse for security and not having any administrative oversight, thumb drives and air-gaps; ie fake security. Most of these states have twisted ballot privacy laws to pretend election administrators and ballot workers cannot have video surveillance logs, secure ballot computer access logs, door/device/other security logs, or any other kind of oversight. It is convenient to misconstrue fake security, to remove all security.

I think she and everyone else must have forgotten Jan 6th, 2017 as well, the attempts to overturn the election, the elector trick the DNC pulled, the insurrection that delayed the electoral count, the people who snuck into the electoral count proceedings, the months of nation wide riots, police injuries, and damaged property....
