Thoughts on the candidates and who are the favorites?
Who are they (“the candidates”)?
Joe?
Bill?
People like ‘these’?
What about AL for mayor ?
Who are the candidates again ? will they be folks like the mayor’s mindset ? you know, setting free people who assault the police, commit ‘negligent’ homicides, diseased-minded-pedophiles and people who close 'important, needed prisons' in the NY area where the prisoners are so violent they assault the prison guards who watch over them?
Thoughts on the candidates and who are the favorites?
Since I am not a NYC (or NY) voter, it does not practically mean anything, but I can have an opinion I guess. I don't know of any Republican having a remote shot at it (Eric Ulrich's positions are not Republican, so I have no idea how or why he can be affiliated with that party), so among the plausible candidates I think Ruben Diaz Jr would do least damage as the mayor, since he is actually sane and moderate, even though a Democrat (eg, he had written a letter of invitation to the Bronx to Bezos for Amazon HQ2, has been the principal supporter of new Metro North line in the Bronx, and has been trying to prevent placement of a new jail in Mott Haven). His activities in the Bronx have been generally positive (though fairly minor, nothing earth-shaking). He would be my preference over the rest, but that that does not mean he is fantastic, it only means that every other candidate I know of, with any degree of chance of winning the election, is dismal. He is not , he is only , and I think that is the best that can be hoped for.
99% chance we will get de Blasio 2.0 no matter what. That's just the political climate of this city and it's not changing anytime soon.
