    I haven’t followed Lander much (the comptroller) but I thought their co-endorsement was tactical given the ranked-choice voting. Let’s see if it continues into the general.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      Hard to imagine anti-Zionist or antisemite winning in Jew York, even if he has the D next to his name.

      He’s actually got a fair amount of “progressive” Jew support. The Jewish comptroller has been very public in his support. He really plays into the anti-Zionism ≠ antisemite.

      He got the wealthy college educated white person vote. Progressive Jews will be a big part of that. The people in the parts of the city he aims to help most directly with his helpful socialism, voted mostly for Cuomo.

      Education is extremely important.

        I know a Jew who jews for a living that made a social media commercial for him.

        Flip description but he makes his living touring internationally with a klezmer band and has a won a Grammy. I was shocked when I saw him supporting Momdani.

                  I cannot read that because it's paywalled. Also because I never learned to read, but mostly because it's paywalled.

                                Fair, but at least economic stuff was only part of Trump's platform. And, reasonable people can still believe that his economy would be better than Harris's.

                                    The educated progressive whites know why that is - because the people they are helping, are low information voters who only vote by name recognition. They don't say that out loud of course, but they know that that's why the poor people voted for Cuomo.

                                      You may be giving them too much credit, at least on average. I imagine most assume that of course the oppressed people they’re trying to protect voted for The Good Guy.
