Republicans lead in five City Council districts - three in Queens (two of which are on a knife edge), two on Staten Island.

I will now accept my accolades

I tried to tell you what was going on.  I really tried.  This looks like a landslide close race, folks.

Map!



59 is a surprise. And, yeah, Hispanic areas swung the wrong way.

Nice map Al.  Quick glance is that is pretty much a racial map of NYC.

With a few odd exceptions (or what look like odd exceptions), yeah. I might do a proper analysis thing tomorrow.

Summary of the City Council results... laughably lopsided, so why bother. But five Republicans now, three of them from Queens; 20 and 19 were both gained. Republican challengers in 30 and 43 were beaten easily, though.

What's interesting is that the polarisation seems a little less than in some past races - Staten Island certainly seems to have been less overwhelming in its support for Bloomberg than it has been in the past or than it was for Giuliani. I wonder whether Bloomberg changing the rules might have something to do with that.

Apparently the Republican who picked up the open Avella seat is a "pagan".

Part one of a very basic demographic analysis that I've done elsewhere:

The majority-white-in-2000 districts that voted for Thompson are 50 and 59 - both by very small margins.

The third (and probably final) part will look at patterns relating to ethnicity.

Thompson seems to have polled a plurality on the Democratic line. For those interested in such things.

I don't get the " (n%) Bloomberg (#), Thompson (#)" thing. Can someone explain it to me.

The percentage is a census variable (say over 29% Italian). The Bloomberg and Thompson numbers are the number of Assembly districts that fit the census variable that were won by each candidate.
