There’s also 1 million more people than in 1989 and (I think?) a larger portion of NYCers are registered dems now. So that’s not actually that good. We should break turnout records every year if our population grows.
They’re arguably the most important elections for change. We should be voting twice every two years, not once every four, for federal elections alone. It’s much easier to remember with mail-in ballots, and they give you the names to research if you’ve been too busy to keep up.
Weird…
Almost like giving people a candidate they agree with, makes them more likely to vote…
Not like that!

Fair, I always want turnout by percentage of total voters, because percent of total voters in each party is a big part of it.
A candidate that grows the party shouldn’t have their accomplishments reduced because they drive turnout.
We don’t live in an ideal word, most people don’t even vote in generals.
Why do people keep talking about candidates like they’re gifts?
He won a PRIMARY. We get progressives in NY primaries ALL THE TIME. The only difference with Mamdani’s win is that WE SHOWED UP.
This is how we take control of our Congress. Vote. In. Primaries.
Thank you.
I always get ticked when I see people talk in the general election “man these are two shitty candidates” when they didn’t vote in the primary.
The primaries are where much smaller grassroots movements can be far more effective than the general.

Establishment dems were mad people didn’t turn out for Harris.
You’re welcome.
I’m not 100% sure what you’re trying to say, just that it’s not relevant
But large businesses cannot vote, that’s so unfair!
