Off-cycle local elections in NYC are a gift to party machine politics, full stop. Yes on 6!
Unlike Greg, I voted yes on #6. Anything to bolster turnout and reduce election fatigue in NYC would be good for local democracy. Still, this is a very good thread on all of the ballot proposals.
Okay, I did a big thread on the ballot proposals in the NYC election. Here's the final outcome, but please feel free to check out the thread for all the links and the various pros/cons!

I’ve seen multiple people on TikTok opposing the ballot question that would move NYC elections on-cycle because it would “make it less special” and I can’t explain it but these are future NIMBYs

Anthony DiLorenzo: PIX-11 was tipped about ICE raid. NYers react:
"People just stopped in their tracks. People were going to school. People were coming home from work or just commuting. And stopped to scream at these ICE agents. Pulled out their phones started recording and telling them to leave."

very cool that if you are working on behalf of right-wing culture warriors, you no longer need standing to have your claim adjudicated by the supreme court
It's not just that they're going to strike down a law against conversion therapy, it's that they're going to do it on behalf of made-up claims from a straw plaintiff who can't honestly show the law affected her at all
One thing about American's widespread distrust and disapproval of the Supreme Court is that mainstream news coverage mostly doesn't dwell on stuff like standing, so people don't even begin to grasp how rigged the Court truly is www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

U.S. Border Patrol agents deployed to Chicago led a late-night raid on an apartment building this week, rappelling from helicopters onto rooftops and breaking down doors in an operation authorities said targeted gang members but which swept up U.S. citizens and families.

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

F and M trains will swap routes between Manhattan and Queens starting in December 2025. We’re making this change to improve reliability. Here’s what you need to know about how your trip may change.

This is depressingly common now. A lot of people have in absentia removal orders they don't know about. And now that the benefits office is becoming an arm of the mass deportation machine, so people are getting picked up in this situation -- and grace to give time to file a motion to reopen is gone.
I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation
