“When was Trump supposedly going to run for governor?”
Look it up, and after you do that, look up how control-freak Trump did not want NYers to have a primary. Newsmax had a great story about it, so now you can bad mouth them as you did Ed Cox.
Ed Cox is the most moral GOP Chair that NY has had in many, many years.

After I read the biased nonsense at the link, I just had to find a photo of the writer to satisfy my curiosity.
I couldn't decide whether Rosa was strident, bitter and old or young, shallow and impressionable.

LOLOLOL.
Just a guess on my part, but I think she prefers to be judged on the value of her work.

Above 50% and its winner takes all with some weirdo stuff re some kind of added in sort of super delegates, but 95 regular delegates.
I read different, that's it's proportional with 20% threshold
Here's a good reference to the remaining races -

I believe this is how the New York system works:
There are three delegates for each congressional district, for a total of 81 statewide. They will be awarded based on the votes cast by registered Republicans.
Candidates who receive more than 50 percent of the vote are awarded all three delegates in the district. If the winner receives less than 50 percent of the vote, but more than 20 percent, he or she would get two of the delegates and the second-place candidate would get one.
A third-place candidate would receive no delegates.
There are an additional 14 at-large delegates who are controlled by the state and national parties.

Cruz already dropped in on NYC and insulted DeBlasio and congratulated the cops for turning their backs on him
But it seemed odd and stiff to have an Eddie Haskell Cruz insulting the mayor while visiting his own city ( even if the mayor is ridiculous)
So which candidates will try to use DeBlasio’s negatives?
Not hillary
But will Trump? I just don't see him throwing hardballs at Wilhem. NYC is his hometown. Rudy will have his back.

She kicked off her primary rounds here in Harlem and then headed upstate, working her base of black voters, older women and moderates, while Mayor Bill de Blasio, who ran Clinton’s first Senate campaign in 2000

I can assure you that 9 million people in the ‘metro’ area are NOT going to vote in a primary.

Ed Cox? That dullard!
I must say as a lifelong NYer, I don’t remember Trump running for governor. Perhaps he floated the idea but who cares about that?

Yeah I hope it’s trump -Kasick -Cruz. I don’t want to have Cruz lose his third place result he has going across America. That would be a shame.

She resembles John Lennon without the glasses and is probably as whacked-out as he was.

What I noticed was the only Conservative, Cruz, was third.
It’s the New York values at work.

As for NY Hellary loves carpet as a bagger and muncher. NY’s blue collar types will mostly go for Trump but the liberal hacks and gibs me dat herds will flock to their queen. With The Commie Bern together they make a dynamic duo of a disaster. An ex-NY’er here in TX..

Sanders just had a huge rally in the Bronx, over 10,000 with more in overflow. Many are for him in Manhattan. Upstate is where he won’t do that well, although there is a healthy loathing for Hillary.

No, but most of it gets bought up by men.

I don’t think people see it that way here. Sanders may be a loon but hes likable. Deblasio is a giant A hole and generally disliked.
