What mistakes? Everything’s come out perfectly according to their plan.
They’ve raked in billions by losing elections and doing nothing; this is exactly who they are and how they wanted things to be.
Never trust the polls. If you are in NYC and haven’t voted yet, do not trust the polls, you need to go out and vote tomorrow.
Totally. Chances are fair that this is disinformation to lull potential voters into staying home thinking it’s in the bag. It ain’t over! Vote!
Polls are legitimate data on the sentiments of voters. However, they are prone to various error, and when combined with the tendency of partisans to trumpet polls that favor their narrative and dismiss or ignore those that don’t, this can build a misleading view of what’s happening.
This is just one poll, so while it is interesting and suggests a tightening race, it’s probably an outlier. So I think my prior is still that Cuomo is heavily favored, but we won’t know for sure until the results are counted.
So trust the polls but understand that they are not prophecies, only one clue among many as to what is really going to happen.
Haven’t been keeping a close eye, but anybody is better than Cuomo
Mamdani has been endorsed by AOC, and seems to be who the rest of the progressives are coalescing around.
Even with ranked choice, Cuomo and Weiner are going to split the neoliberal sex pest vote.Noted neoliberal sex pest Bill Clinton endorsed Cuomo
Shit birds of a feather

Weiner is running for city council, not mayor
Thanks!
WHAT? HOW can someone who LISTENS to New Yorkers be AHEAD of a Sexual Convict who ONLY Listens to RICH People? We need to Spend BILLIONS Studying this!
-The DNC!
We need to Spend BILLIONS Preventing this!
I’m concerned that now that it looks like they have a chance, it’ll be lots of money on character assassination and “now’s not the time” messaging. Including from AIPAC.
Now it’s so the fucking time. Democrats have failed us. Continue failing on a daily basis.
Yeah, I agreed with “now isn’t the time” when there was a chance to prevent agent orange redux, but now… Very much the time.
Well they’re going to have to hurry it up if they want to prevent this one, voting is tomorrow I believe.
Note that it’s extremely likely that ranked choice will be the deciding factor here as Cuomo may “win” first choice but lose the ranked majority. Expect challenges in implementing ranked choice from establishment dems in the immediate future.
Didn’t Newsom veto one of these before? There’s a reason this stuff is implemented using citizens’ initiatives.
Oh, didn’t realize, that is hopeful then
And absolutely agreed in the ranked choice voting. I commented somewhere else that Ohio is a perfect example of the Democrat party going all in to defeat it. Now if it’s going to have a chance it’ll be an overwhelming referendum and the party on control already has a history of ignoring those without repercussion.
I actually think RCV is maybe bad for Mamdani. He has a lot of energy but is the furthest left candidate. RCV tends to favor moderates, and Cuomo is probably perceived as more moderate, rightly or wrongly.
“More moderate” in the scope of a Democratic party should be a middle of the party mild progressive. Cuomo is on the extreme right end of the options.
Should be, but NYC has a surprisingly conservative streak. Just look at their past mayors.
Interesting, I guess this will be a good opportunity for analysis.
Yeah it’s complicated. It might help more radical campaigns to launch but the actual tally should favor consensus candidates who I expect to be moderate. But it will be interesting to see what happens.
“Now’s not the time” is how they got Bernie.
Remember, these articles are to placate the lazy, assume you still have to vote for him to win.
You Don’t Mess with the Zohran
