Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

1) Disappointed that #Keishalancebottoms isn’t on Blue Sky
2) totally over dems not telling me what they are for and using fear of MTG to raise money when she has not announced. lame. Same goes for Jon Ossoff.
3) Cuomo’s negative ad campaign hurt him. learn from that.
4) OMG stop texting me!!

experience matters. That’s why I’m ranking Adrienne Adams #1. @bradlander.bsky.social and @scottstringernyc.bsky.social #2 and #3. I’m in awe of the campaign @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has launched. If rounds of counting makes it to my 5th choice, I will be glad my vote went to him. #nycprimary

Andrew Cuomo is a sexual predator, grandparent killer, billionaire puppet, Netanyahu defender, and Iran-war supporter who DOES NOT EVEN live in NYC.
We can do so much better.
When you go to vote tomorrow in the mayoral election, remember:
Don’t rank Cuomo.

This is my guy for Comptroller
In the race for NYC Comptroller...
I am the only candidate who has called for Eric Adams to resign. I am also the only candidate who has called for a ceasefire.
This moment calls for politicians with guts. Please vote accordingly.

Here is another idea for a better Manhattan:
Let’s avoid a special election to replace @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social in NY senate district 47 (West Side of Manhattan from the village to Hell’s kitchen - I think).
He has done a good job in Albany. Let’s keep him there!

I understand that you want to challenge your boss in next year’s primary, but you should resign from Lt governor and fully commit to your campaign. You are doing a disservice to all new yorkers by doing both.
