    Agree, that's why I say it's a decent enough proxy.

    Sad how large the grey area (<77 for men) is.

    And here is one that is <74 for men (red)… much of it is concentrated in the Southwest.

    NYC is so incredibly screwed if Mamdani wins. What a clown show at tonight's debate!

    I will be watching the next 4 years from beautiful upstate NY.

    I am interested to see how all of this plays out.
    I want to see it happen for good or bad.
    It will be a great beta test.

    There is no mystery as to how his policies will play out... because these policies have already been implemented and failed spectacularly. Your side is choosing the East Germany. Your side is choosing North Korea. It doesn't make you look like a.... student of history.


    GOOD DAY

    I am kind of rooting for this guy, you live there but it seems there are so many corrupt politicians in NY with Cuomo and Adams. I hope he does well

    The young and dumb voters in NYC are going to ruin their city... Mamdani tries to look good for the cameras and put on his fake smile... but it's nasty people like this staffer, who shows total disdain for the police, who will be running the day-to-day...

    He lives upstate, as he said "will be watching for the next 4 years"

    NYC has lived through a lot of s!!t...the 70s, name-a-string-of-mayors, NYPD scandals galore, Rudy, Kerik, 9/11, etc....

    I think they'll be fine.

    Pobrecito Commodore and his Lord and Savior Donald the ex New Yorker, are so threatened by the muslim Mamdani. Don't worry ,Commodore, you will still be ok and you will probably eventually have enough savings for your old age if you live that long..

    Absolutely not
    They will find a way to try and Give Trump Credit for it
    Even after tried to influence the election by saying he would not give NY money if they elect him
    A threat I expect him to carry out

    In all honesty. I am a bit insulated from NYC politics. We are a good 2.5-hour train ride to Penn Station.
    Basically, all we do up here in Albany is b**** that the state should be divided in 3.

    The Bill's fans out west and Central NY should be a state.
    Downstate to include NYC, Long Island up to the Catskills should be a state.
    And upstate up to Canada should be a state.

    And you live in New York state. Mamdani's potential mayoralty in New York City should have no bearing at all on nationwide Democratic politics.

    You are correct sir.
    I don't pay any mind to Texas local politics since I moved away many years ago.
    I get the 10,000-foot view like most down south get of NYC.
