Off topic, but why is it there is no serious candidate running against Cuomo? I’ve been talking about this with friends, but there’s a huge opening here in NYC for the “Trains are too damn slow” candidate (ala Jimmy McMillan). Heck, they wouldn’t have to run too far to the left if they made fixing the NY Train system

She has more charisma in one of her laughs than Megyn Kelly ever will.

I’m closing in on 30 and I’m about half the age of the majority of folks in the Dem group I belong to here in NYC. It’s a struggle, to say the least.

Not sure if you’re being sarcastic, but registered voters in NYC have booklets about all candidates mailed to the address that the registered to vote with, along with post card reminders about upcoming elections from the DOE.

Besides the Mayoral primary there were 5 judges and the DA (I live in Brooklyn) up for election. My district didn’t have any other offices up. When I walked in to vote after work it was a ghost town. I don’t understand how people appear so fired up about Trump and yet we can’t even get 1/4 of the voting population in

It’s amazing how active folks can be on social media about politics but eschew any sort of local involvement. I voted in the NYC mayoral primary along with with just 14% of eligible voters... the rep. elect in NH won by 39 votes... local elections matter, folks!

Now playing

Remember when Texas elected a woman governor in the 1980s? When people said, ‘there’s no way that she could win?’ Perhaps it’s too much ancient history for folks on here... but Beto reminds me of a certain prolific Texan who focused on connecting with everyone, rather than more of the same.

Well, the USA had a good run. We tried to have nice things, but it turns out there are simply too many of us willing to make each other miserable. Polls have tightened and I am already dreading the post debate where Trump is declared the winner for being able to stand and breathe at the same time.

Wasserman-Schultz was appointed to an HONORARY POSITION. Good thing you and others weren’t fooled by the spin - oh wait. Here, why don’t you read this:

To think, he could’ve been Trumps runningmate. What a loss for us all.

I have a close friend who worked on Long Island Medium in editing and described it as the most soul crushing experience ever. He also thought that the woman was a piece of human trash for conning people. I imagine this is quite the same.

I got ungreyed but not on any of the ones I wanted :(

You’re in good company. My friends have told me the same thing. In the event of a post-apocalyptic world, they would kill me for fear of being sold out at a later date/killed for their belongings. They also fear that I would likely turn into some sort of post-apocalyptic gang leader anyway.

Blackberries are also known for their quality to help skin complexion. I eat them almost every day now.

It’s also hard watching folks parrot the talking points of the right while attacking her from the left, all with the smarm and sexism folks claim they fight against. In the past week I’ve seen people talk about “not having a dog in the fight” against those trying limit women’s reproductive rights (because the

What’s really telling is that Bernie is hitting Hillary, and in effect, hitting President Obama. He’s not a Democrat. He doesn’t support the democratic party, and now that he’s being exposed as flash and not substance, it’s getting under his skin.

President Infinity is a much better, if wonkier game.

So not a fan of her. She spoke at the LGBTQ event for the city during pride and it was the most blatant tone deaf pandering I’ve ever experienced. All of the people that I was with scratched our heads when she talked about “understanding” us after “choosing” a different path. Tone deaf and a shameless panderer, much

Anyone know if the Boston College area will be in it? I’m asking as an alum. :D
