I agree. Heck I was born there. I would be pa micro minority for NYC and part of the 30% conservative for the whole state( which is now where I live)
You pretty much hit the nail on the head.
Can’t help where you were born :-) I lived in the Bronx for a couple of years. My observations are based on first hand knowledge of the people I knew and worked with there. (I also lived in Ithaca for several years - just as bad but with worse winter weather and more salt on the roads.)
