Democratic congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Friday implored Republican Sen. Josh Hawley to resign, and a new poll released Thursday shows that a majority of Hawley's constituents in Missouri agree that the lawmaker should quit following his role in inciting an attack on the U.S. Capitol.

According to a survey (pdf) of Missouri voters conducted by Data for Progress and MoveOn, 51% of likely voters in the state—91% of Democrats, 52% of self-identified independents, and 20% of Republicans—believe that Hawley should resign immediately as a consequence for sowing doubt about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.

Like several additional GOP lawmakers, Hawley has faced criticism for baselessly challenging the legitimacy of President-elect Joe Biden's decisive electoral win, an effort that critics say implicates them in last week's right-wing assault on the halls of Congress.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez entered Congress on a mission to turn America into a socialist state. But her career took an unexpected turn. And one top Republican sided with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on this major vote. Congressional leaders spent days behind closed doors drawing up a 2.5 trillion-dollar spending scheme. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell claimed. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wins primary as voters in 6 states cast ballots Two weeks after Georgia's messy primary, another six states voted. A poll conducted last month for the campaign by Celinda Lake, who also worked with Ocasio-Cortez in 2018, found the congresswoman’s favorable rating at 79 percent, and with 73 percent support in. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has nearly as high an unfavorable rating during her short time in office as more seasoned politicians such as President Trump, Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and Joe.

Since the January 6 insurrection, Hawley has tried to distance himself from the actions of the pro-Trump mob, yet even in the aftermath of the deadly riot, the lawmaker still—alongside 139 House and seven other Senate Republicans—voted against certifying the Electoral College results.

While Hawley has tried to portray his objections to Biden's victory as a principled stance in defense of 'election integrity,' Rep. Ocasio Cortez (D-N.Y.) reminded the Missouri Republican of the infamous photograph in which Hawley is depicted raising his fist 'in solidarity with white supremacists who attacked our Capitol.'

Hey Sen @HawleyMO, I hate to break it to you, but this is, in fact, you.
You raised your fist in solidarity with white supremacists who attacked our Capitol.
While you may politically regret what you’ve revealed about yourself, you still have no place in public office.
Resign. https://t.co/Cduo5W35dspic.twitter.com/Owx4C8iAHY

Raw video: New York congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez weighs in on $3 trillion House of Representatives bill.

A House Democratic primary debate between Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and former CNBC host Michelle Caruso-Cabrera became heated Monday when Caruso-Cabrera confronted the incumbent over what she described as misplaced priorities during the coronavirus pandemic.

The challenger specifically took issue with Ocasio-Cortez's decision to remain in Washington D.C. at 'the height of the crisis.'

'You stayed away in your apartment. AOC, you're always MIA,' said Caruso-Cabrera, who also accused the freshman lawmaker of creating 'huge division within' the House Democratic caucus.

Ocasio-Cortez fought back by accusing Carera-Cabruso of running a phony campaign and not actually caring about New York's 14th congressional district.

'While it's disappointing to see Ms. Caruso-Cabrera fixated on personal attacks -- and for some strange reason, obsessed with the six days in March that I wasn't feeling well, and had to stay in my apartment,' she said. 'I do think it's quite funny that she goes on and on about the fact that ... I spend time doing my job in Washington and coming home to the Bronx when she lived in a $15,000-a-month Trump Tower apartment until six months ago.

'This woman probably couldn't even find Sunnyside [Queens] on a map until she decided to challenge me for the sake of challenging me,' Ocasio-Cortez added. 'She doesn't care about the Bronx, she doesn't care about Queens. She cares about running for running.

'No one's ever seen this person before,' the incumbent added. 'Who are you? Like, where is your family from? Where have you lived? No one has seen you in this community before, and while I know you have multi-millionaires that finance your campaign, and you're financed by the same real estate developers and big banks that will profit from the corruption in Washington, and adding one more notch to their belt, I don't think it's important for us to do that. I don't think it's OK for us to do that.'

'Greetings from Sunnyside, Queens,' Caruso-Cabrera responded. 'I love Sunnyside, Queens, I love New York. I wish I had been born in New York. Unfortunately, I wasn't. My opponent is the one that nobody ever sees in the district. Let me tell you, the second this crisis started, I started delivering food and I started delivering masks.'

'I have delivered nearly 50,000 masks and food and hand sanitizer to Jacobi Hospital, which I'm not sure you could have found on a map, AOC,' she said, apprently prompting laughter from both Ocasio-Cortez and Queens activist Badrun Khan, who's also running for Ocasio-Cortez's seat.

Caruso-Cabrera claimed that on 'day one, I was out delivering food, I was out delivering masks -- I wasn't even elected.'

Ocasio-Cortez again insisted that she had stayed in her apartment because she was unwell before pivoting to her own actions during the pandemic.

'I'm proud to say that we continued to have a strong field force on the ground, and this is the benefit of being a movement candidate,' she said. 'Again, I have continued to raise over almost half-a-million dollars for food pantries, delivering meals myself, while also advocating for broader, systemic change in Washington..

Aoc Approval Rating 2020 In Her District

Caruso-Cabrera argued that was the 'least' Ocasio-Cortez could do after 'driving away 25,000 jobs,' a reference to the self-described democratic socialist's opposition to Amazon's bid to build a second headquarters in Long Island City, Queens.

'That's the least you could do after driving away $27 billion in tax revenue that we could have had,' Caruso-Cabrera said. 'Imagine if we had those jobs that you drove away right now to help us get back on our feet.'

A registered Democrat and descendant of Cuban immigrants, Caruso-Cabrera has been a fierce critic of socialism and advocate for free markets.

Her 2010 book -- titled 'You Know I'm Right: More Prosperity, Less Government' -- calls out both parties for ignoring 'fiscally conservative, socially liberal' Americans like herself.
