Not one DNC official endorsed Cuomo. Bill Clinton has no official role in the party whatsoever and lives in New York. Clyburn's "pull" doesn't extend to NY. Yeah, him endorsing was weird and stupid but you can't really complain about that but be okay when Bernie endorses Mamdani.Why can't we complain about anyone endorsing Cuomo but not complain about Bernie endorsing Mamdani?
Again, is it halting this narrative that Senate and most House leadership (given Clyburn stepped down there a bit ago) didn't endorse Cuomo at all? this narrative is kinda collapsing when it's scutinized a little
Cuomo didn't do it for me this time, but they shouldn't give up on him. If he comes back older, wiser, with a deeper tan, and gets the endorsement of an old black politician my father remembers as an FBI plant in the Civil Rights movement, I'll still never vote for him.
I hope the fact that people are confusing the DNC with "influential members of the Democratic party" shows that the people confusing AIPAC with "influential donors who support Israel" in the other topic weren't being antisemitic, just uninformed.
This is why we don't leap to the worst possible interpretation of someone's character right off the bat.
The DNC is a group comprised of a bunch of elected positions to carry out the operation of the Democratic party.
It is not shorthand for the elites of the Democratic party.
Yeah. The DNC is really a glorified fundraiser that hosts debates and throws a convention every 4 years. It's not some imperial council
I guess DNC is supposed to equate to "Deep State" in some people's mind. I'm happy Mamdani won though. He's better than Cuomo. If he lost, we'd be hearing how the "DNC rigged it against Mamdani," and how voting doesn't matter. So at least this can move things in a better direction.
Mamdani ran a great campaign
Cuomo ran a completely bad one, period and full stop.
But he called himself a socialist and didn't court certain demographics well. You were just criticizing him for that some days ago.
Wasn't getting a ton of endorsements and donations good campaigning? I could swear I've heard that it was in some previous races...
Yeah, and he still ran a good campaign by teaming up with Lander
Him teaming up with Lander was good but saying that is what defined his campaign is selling the campaign short.
Meanwhile you were defending Bashar al-Assad and mocking a genocide survivor just a few days ago, so why don't you shut the fuck up with any attempt at mockery?
Why do you continue to lie after being corrected? I knew nothing about the user who blocked me until after someone else told me what he said after he blocked me, and stating the fact that it's illegal for the US to attack other countries is not defending dictators. Stop with the nonsense already.
Ranked choice voting is great, it allows similar candidates to work together to promote mutual policy goals that they share while also accentuating the things that make them unique. I hope we see more of it in the future.For real, it really helps candidates with nowhere near as much financial backing have more of a chance.
You were actively defending Assad
and smugly telling FF it was right to let his people die. Shut up and have some shame
Reread the topic. I said nothing positive about Assad and praised the fact that he was overthrown internally.
You have some fucking shame and acknowledge the reality that I had no idea what that dude's heritage was until after I was blocked and could no longer communicate with him.

Republicans are laughing their asses off right now.You really wanted Cuomo to win huh?
You really wanted Cuomo to win huh?I think he feels Cuomo will run anyway and split the vote, allowing Republicans to win
I think he feels Cuomo will run anyway and split the vote, allowing Republicans to winCorrect
Remember how badly Democrats wanted Trump to create the MAGA party a few years back?
CorrectSo you think Mamdani got enough votes in a Democratic party primary to crush Cuomo, but the Democrat vote in the general is going to split between the two allowing the Republican to win? Do I have that right?
This is terrible. The Republicans will start calling the Democrats communists now. They've never done that before.
This is terrible. The Republicans will start calling the Democrats communists now. They've never done that before.Truly we've entered a new era of politics where Republicans will just make up a bunch of bullshit.
Is it RCV for the General, too?No.

It's over once the busses are free. New York will be nothing but a pile of black smoke and smoldering embers.
