NYC'13: Congrats to Mayor de Blasio

Yes, this basically makes Quinn look like an idiot, and it may lose her some gay male votes. We don't really like people making a "you don't like me because I'm gay" issue out of thin air. Okay, maybe it's just me.

I used to have a huge amount of respect for Quinn, but I'm torn between Thompson and de Blasio right now.

So the night when Weiner lost his campaign for mayor, the woman he sexted came to his campaign headquarters at the time of his concession speech. Seems awkward right? But that’s not the last of it.

He went into the McDonalds close by with this woman, and they were both in there for a few minutes.

After the incident of whatever-the--they-were-doing, he went to his car and flipped the bird at the journalists from the inside of his car.

What a graceful way to leave politics. If he leaves politics (please dear god leave politics).

Also, I'm looking at the map, and there's a precinct between Riverdale and Washington Heights (District 72-050) and they voted for Credico by a huge margin, he won with 97.2% of the vote in that district and it accounted for 1/12 of his total votes.

I think you're right.

We'll probably see the return of tribal voting in a big way in this runoff.

James is beating Squadron 60%-40% with 87% in.   Squadron takes Manhattan.  James takes all of the outer boroughs.  The AP just called it for James.

Have a good link for the results? James winning SI is a bit surprising.

I think this is the correct link, but it's an ABC result.
