    Yep, two shit bag neoliberals running I and an actual Republican.

    This is both good for Mamdani and what will be used as an excuse when he wins.

      Is the Republican even relevant in NYC this election? I saw this as Lieberman for Connecticut redux.

        The Republican is the Guardian Angels guy from the 80s, he’s probably not relevant outside of Staten Island, and a few old cat ladies.

            Not necessarily for good reasons, though. Particularly over the last decade or so.

            He doesn’t even have the “just woke up from a 40-year coma” vote sewn up, since there’s a Cuomo running…
