An election in queens which we should have won. We did last election. Something is going on with our voters not showing up to vote. I guess we’re not energized.
You're referring the special election yesterday in the 27th Assembly District in New York.
Let's look at the voter registration breakdown there:
DEMOCRAT: 55%
REPUBLICAN: 16%
UNAFFILIATED: 25%
Biden won that district by a 60%-39% margin in 2020. Clinton won by 66%-32% in 2016.
The 2022 election in that district was the first one in more than ten years where the Republican Party even fielded a candidate at all. From 2012 to 2020 the Democrat ended up running unopposed, or -- get this -- ran on both the Democrat and Republican tickets.
You think this special election was a bellweather of any kind? You really must be kidding.
P.S. -- This is absolutely, verifiably false.
