Ilhan Omar as well as popular Twitch streamers like "Pokimane," "DrLupo" and "Myth." Planning for the stream also seemed fairly impromptu, as Ocasio-Cortez tweeted on Monday afternoon to ask if anyone wanted to play "Among Us" with her on Twitch to help "get out the vote."ĭuring the streaming event, Ocasio-Cortez encouraged viewers to visit the website, a site backed by the Democratic National Committee that helps visitors register to vote. Twitch members tuned into the stream to watch Ocasio-Cortez playing the popular multiplayer social game with the likes of fellow congresswoman and "Squad" member Rep.
Ocasio-Cortez's event ended up as the fifth most-watched individual Twitch stream ever, according to gaming site Dexerto, with past events like gamer Michael "Shroud" Grzesiek's return to Twitch in August (after a stint with Microsoft's now-defunct streaming platform, Mixer) also outpacing the congresswoman's debut. Blevins still holds the record for the most-watched Twitch stream by an individual streamer after more than 600,000 viewers tuned in to watch his 2018 "Fortnite" battle with the rapper Drake. That peak in viewership would make the congresswoman's Twitch debut one of the most-watched events in the platform's nine-year history, according to the website TwitchTracker, putting Ocasio-Cortez in a similar league as gamer streaming stars like Tyler "Ninja" Blevins.
