Primary and special elections will never be the same with ranked choice voting going into effect in 2021 and seeing as primaries are the deciding factor in Democrat-heavy New York City, it’s going to be important.

Not only will voters in the five boroughs be dealing with a new a ballot format that allows them to choose from most to least favorite for office, residents will have their work cut out for them in deciding since some districts are seeing dozens of candidates running in term limited districts.

I mean people should be doing their research anyway. This could be a great opportunity for people to learn. I always try to view the sample ballot before voting. I am pretty excited about this, actually.

So if #1 Democrat doesn't cut the mustard and #2 Democrat doesn't cut the mustard and #3 Democrat
doesn't cut the mustard then we will settle for #4 Democrat.


As long as it's a Democrat ............who knows how to handle a hot dog!
