Pakled Homan's bitch.
I've read that Democrats are also looking at arcane old rules to try to disqualify him, so if the MAGA Nazis come for him, don't expect any support from the Democratic Party.
The general already has Mamdani, Adams, and Sliwa. Anyone voting for Adams or Sliwa probably wasn't voting for Mamdani anyway. So if Cuomo jumps in as an Indy, he won't take any votes from Mamdani, who's already beaten him once, so he'll have to shave votes from Adams (he can't be getting too many votes) and Sliwa (he never wins anything). Mamdani will end up with half the votes, and the other three will split the remaining half.
Cities and states sometimes have different rules for different races. Cities are often so Democratic, that elections sometimes end up being between two Democrats. I've even seen Republicans register as Democrats so they have a shot at getting people just to listen to them.
Often races like judges, school boards, etc. are officially "non-partisan," but you can usually figure out which is which by their positions on the issues.
I'm a Hogger.
Me, too. Guy is a typical weak, ineffective nothing. I would vote for any strong-willed Democrat who opposed him.
Peaceful protests, boycotts and sternly worded letters rely on the people you're protesting having a sense of shame. Which the right (and most of the left) no longer have.
They can do a lot more than that - it can scare them, and that will have an effect.
At their core, Conservatives are cowards. They are literally afraid of EVERYTHING - it's their primary characteristic. They want to remain in their safe little bubble, with no changes to anything. Any changes can only bring uncertainty, and uncertainty is terrifying to them.
So when the crowds at the protests get larger and larger, week by week, they begin to realize that they are outnumbered, especially the leadership, who KNOWS they cheated to win the election, and know they don't have anywhere near the numbers on their side that they claim. They know that when the Tipping Point arrives, and the Left finally rises up, they don't stand a chance.
All they have to defend themselves is empty bluster, and they are scared shitless that we all see it, which we do. That HitlerPig/ Hegseth presser this morning is a perfect examples. Those were two frightened cowards, demanding that everybody acknowledge their empty power, and hoping nobody will realize how weak they really are.
So protests, boycotts, letter campaigns, etc. all serve to amp up their fear, and sooner or later they will do something about it. It's likely that the first reaction will be violent, but when the counter-response is crushing, and continues to be crushing, they will quickly start demanding to make a deal.
That's when we should purge MAGA once and for all. No mercy.
Well, have fun.
SOMEBODY should tell you not to!
And judging by how effective they are, they are overpaid.
