Given the current ratio of voters, it is more likely that there are about 7 million rats.
Ok, I'm still confused, do they mean DemocRATS, (Rattus democratus) or the rodentia, like Rattus norvegicus and Rattus rattus
I guess I'll have to break with tradition and read some of the article to find out....
Although now that I think of it, Rattus democratus have been in control of New York for so long that it would hardly be newsworthy.

I have kept rats for years as pets and they are exceedingly affectionate and intelligent creatures. However anything in its feral state can become a pest... rats, dogs, humans.
Elections have consequences.
They should get some Plummer terriers. Check out the Severn Valley Ratters here:
Sleepy “woke” DARPA, or it’s free market successor, Elon Musk, could issue a grand challenge for STEM teams to create mini Terminator robots. Hunting down demon rats in an urban dystopia is useful R&D.
Rats enabled by Rats.
This isn’t news, NYC has had a continued rat infestation for over 200 years.
Floridians living near water are familiar with rats. We’ve even got an endangered rat species!
After 60 years of Florida living, I’ve only seen one mouse. Mouse traps are useless against rats.
We’ve been trained to tether lines to our rat traps, so the trapped rat can’t run off with it!
If they can get inside after dark, don’t be surprised if one should perch on your pillow. In the middle of the night, one tried to take a bite out my exposed foot.
A good sign you’ve trapped a rat in your glue trap if a flapping sound is heard as he makes his escape as you wake up. (They’re mostly nocturnal—and Florida rats can be sizeable).
A colleague told me a rat chewed through concrete to get inside his house!
All rodenticide bait products marketed to residential consumers must be sold as a block or paste bait, packaged with an EPA-approved bait station. Mouse and rat poisons in pellet form are banned.
Products marketed to residential consumers may contain no more than 1 pound of rodenticide bait.
Products marketed to residential consumers will no longer contain the most toxic and persistent pesticide active ingredients: second generation anticoagulants brodifacoum, bromadiolone, difenacoum, and difethialone. Products containing these active ingredients will only be available for commercial use and for residential use by professional pest control operators.
That leaves Bromethalin legal to sell to consumers (who themselves are not forbidden to use the above from what I see, only that it is not to be sold to them), but since Products marketed to residential consumers may contain no more than 1 pound of rodenticide bait then the most effective poison have found - JT Eaton 750 Top Gun All Weather Rodenticide Bait Block Bromethalin Neurological Bait - that was legal to see to consumers may no be, if 1 lb. means per serving, vs. per container. Yet it would have to come with a EPA-approved bait station
There's some Youtube videos of guys in the UK going to farms with their PCP air rifles and night vision scopes and shooting rats by the dozens.
Real Rats enjoying the crumbs left over the the political rats.
…Well the democrat mayor appointed a Rat Czar so yeah…the problem is getting worse. Expectable and expected.
Rats schmats.
The main issue is how best to prosecute Trump.
