You lived in the Bronx or that part of Queens? When? And she only won because less than 1/4 of eligible voters turned out.
Queens, since one would be nuts to live in the Bronx.
I agree that with a ‘normal’ turnout, she would have easily been defeated. But she is no longer the outsider trying to take out the #2 Democrat, she’s now in power, ADORED BY MILLIONS in the country the same way that Trump is adored by us, and will have none of the outsider disadvantages of outsiders (starting with name recognition).
Anyway...we shall see who’s right on this.
