Sliwa has a pure and burning hatred for Cuomo and I can respect that and only that.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.

Anyone have any gouge on the other state propositions/questions, besides CA? Texas? Maine? I see the results but don't know what they were voting on.

If all votes to him went to Coumo, it would have been much closer but Mamdani still would have won. His hate just made the gap between the two larger.

I'm in Virginia and this one is hilarious! Literally every candidate with a "D" is winning by a good margin and two are already called (Spanberger and Hashmi). MAGA needs to really go away. Lol

It's just a shame that people only woke up after things very predictably went to shit. Voter apathy is so dang frustrating.

And when Democrats get back into office, but the gerrymandering of the House and unbalanced nature of the Senate keep enough Republicans in Congress to prevent any real change from taking place (unless the Dems grow some balls and eliminate the filibuster), the Republicans will get voted back into power. "The Democrats aren't fixing things fast enough, vote us back in! Nevermind the fact that we're the ones who broke it." Like in 2016 and 2024. And the 2010 and 2014 midterms during Obama's time in office.

Pretty much everywhere has called it for him. The question now is just how much did he win by.

honestly surprised j jones in virginia won, i was damn sure a democrat openly talking about violence would fuck him. only republicans are allowed to talk about killing people for supporting abortions or carpet bombing cities for not falling in line.

the election in nyc looks wild. that republican candidate must hate the hell out of cuomo because honestly he might have cost him the win.

I'm pleased to see the results of tonight thus far. There is still much work to be done, but we should acknowledge and appreciate victories when we get them.

Mamdani got about 50%. Even if Cuomo's percentage went to Sliwa 4-to-1, Mamdani still would have won easily.

If anyone wants to view Trumps incoming meltdown on social media without having to sign up to his platform. Apparently it's because he wasn't on the ballot, and the shutdown, for now.

This is probably one of the few times where he isn't wrong, but not for the reasons he thinks.

Yeah it shocked me! I actually made peace with him possibly losing because they kept bringing that old text up... But DAMN! It is pretty hypocritical for a party to demonize a candidate when they were ok voting in a President who said that he can shoot someone dead in Time Square and get away with it because he's President.

It's a good night for the Dems, I just hope we don't get complacent. Most of these races should have been wins for Dems. We can't get comfortable or turn down the messaging. Need to keep pressing and make sure they win back the House next year.

If the Black and Jewish vote turnout fot Mamdani is true, NYC is one place Democrats need to not follow going forward.

We won't get complacent. These elections are reassuring but they're relatively low level. People are excited to actually vote in the midterms and make something happen

Need to put more progressive democrats in office and hopefully mamdani will go to the senate level when in his 40s
Above all things, never be afraid. The enemy who forces you to retreat is himself afraid of you at that very moment.
The "shame on Sliwa" chants are wild. Even if Mamdani dips below 50, I think there's enough "other" votes that every single Sliwa vote still isn't enough.

Canada likes, but demolish his Gulf of Gold Oval next.
I wonder if the results of tonight will pressure Congressional Republicans to cave to Dems' demands.

At the very least, this should be a CLEAR sign to Dems to not back down since it seems like the momentum is slightly in their favor.

Sliwa was 100 percent right: why should HE have to drop out? He won his primary, Cuomo lost his

with the voting system the way it is in the US, anything beyond a binary choice is an illusion in any election above local level. we'd need to institute a ranked choice voting setup to make 3rd parties viable. never gonna happen.

What is it even about? His career is over. He can't even win a mayoral race after being a governor and having presidential aspirations and his family name is tarnished.
