    The general election won’t have ranked choice. Adams and Cuomo may end up splitting the “willing to vote for corrupt dirtbag” ticket and let Mamdani cruise to victory.

    We can dream.

        Yes, that’s probably correct. It’ll be late in the race, because both of them are pig headed and want the other one to do it. That will only drag down whomever does end up staying in. It’ll be a glorious game of political chicken. I’m ordering all the popcorn now.

          I thought the donors were going to pick one and push out the other, but web search indicates that hasn’t been successful yet. We’ll see.

            They fight amongst themselves, too.

            They’re all sociopaths. You can use that fact to predict how they function.

      I mean, that’s not even a dream, that’s just what’s almost certainly WILL happen since they appeal to almost exactly the same demographics across the board.

      Would be a surprise if more than one of them even reaches double digit percentages, actually.
