“could sleepwalk its way” ?

It’s by design.

The only thing blamed on chance in NYC is murder.

Even if Zohran wins the Democratic primary, the incumbent mayor, Eric Adams, will be on the ballot in November as an Independent. He’ll get Republicans, Independents and Cuomo Democrats.

Thank you for referencing that article george76.

"If NYC Elects A Far-Left Socialist, Blame Ranked-Choice Voting"


Do we need a constitutional right to make an informed decision?

Parents at least need to teach their kids about caveat emptor (let the buyer beware).

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government
US Const., Art. IV, Sec. 4.

Ranked-Choice Voting hinders true representative governance and is, thus, unconstitutional.

IMO, the feds have constitutional authority to step in and stop this.

Democrats are absolutely amazing at figuring out creative and/or bogus ways to get power. They are incredible.

Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) is a Leftist construct designed to ensure the election of Leftists.

Any politician of any party who voted for it is no conservative.

Yes. They (Leftists) are “on” all the time, and look for every single angle, no matter how small, to exploit.

It is a weakness we have. We are not “on” all the time and have to play catch-up.

If Zohran Mamdani is the Democratic nominee it will be because more voters prefer him to Andrew Cuomo.

“”you know NYC is screwed when corrupt, lying dirtbag cuomo is the good option””

And yet... I recall a few national, presidential elections, where I had no “good options” (either voting for a Democrat or for McCain, for Romney and as it turned out later... even for globalist GWB).

Being given ‘no real choice’ is something US voters have had to deal with for decades.

Using that method, Kamala could have been president.

Heck, Putin could be our president, or Xi.

George W Bush’s candidacy was promoted by the major news media. They were breathless in their reporting of his decision to run in the first place. Every news story of the day was about how the son of a previous president was running for president. They thought they could defeat him more easily than the other republican candidates at the time. Heck if it wasn’t for Florida not quite going their way, we would have had Al Gore for 8 years.
