    I saw AOC riding through a parade with Mandami so he must be legit.
    Perfect for the libbies up there.
    I mean it really does seem like we live in two countries inside our borders.

    Well, if he wins the general too that ought to accelerate the flight of Wall Street to Miami.

    Cuomo can still run in the general but I'm not sure if he has announced whether he will.

    Assuming that Cuomo doesn't run in the general election, the chances of Eric Adams pulling a Trump and winning an election as a formerly indicted politician have increased significantly. If Cuomo runs he could split the opposition virtually ensuring victory for Mandami.

    This race for mayor looks a lot like the actual city…
    A shit show.
    Although I’d probably vote for that guardian angel.

    Since I don’t live there and don’t have to pay for it I think it will be a fascinating experiment if he gets half of what he wants.

    I don't see anyway that he can come close to paying for his proposals. Although he could probably increase property taxes on the ultra expensive ($25 million and up) condos in the city the additional revenue wouldn't come remotely close to paying for what he is proposing.

    Spend a lot of time in NYC for my line of work and it has gone downhill since its comeback in the 1990’s. Still a great place to visit but hopefully but a whack job like Mandami winning the election would be a disaster for the city.

    Great. Just……great. These NY pricks will be heading to Tampa as well. As if our cupboards weren’t overflowing already

    So why were the Republicans contributing a ton of money to Cuomo's campaign?

    Who are these New York pricks? Are they similar to Florida a-holes.

    Maybe head someplace else? West Virginia has plenty of room.
