The polls showing that Zohran Mamdani, a socialist and Muslim terror supporter who only became a citizenship in 2018, could become the mayor of New York City, where his compatriots murdered thousands of Americans, may or may not be true, but there’s no reason why they wouldn’t be.
Mamdani is up against Cuomo, a repulsive and widely hated figure that opponents of the Muslim socialist are only getting behind because the alternative is even worse, and then Mayor Eric Adams, whom much of the city probably right believes is corrupt. There are other candidates in the race, but at this point they don’t really matter very much.
But above all else, the only reason Mamdani’s numbers look this good is that ranked choice voting is doing what it’s supposed to.
Ranked choice voting is designed to elevate fringe candidates who normally wouldn’t have much of a shot in a normal race. And then the same hipster-industrial complex that went to town making De Blasio seem cool and relatable goes to work on what sociopath they picked to make him seem acceptable to at least enough people, not as a first choice, but as a choice.
Add on the large voting base of elderly people who assume that candidates are ranked in order of preference and end up ranking bad candidates last, the whole thing can be moneyballed into a catastrophe.
Like with Chicago they elect Liberal Democrats then watch their City go down the Tubes
Rank choice voting is a scheme designed to undermine Republican representation.
Excellent topic and analysis. Ranked choice has some murky effects that aren’t well understood.
Guess 9/11 was not enough for New York people. Guess they need a worse lesson. I got popcorn, go at it,
All New Yorker’s need to do is look at London.
No, it’s springtime local elections, when the fewest voters (extremists) mostly vote. Democrats use springtime local elections to push in their extreme agenda. Only 3% of a city pop. actually elects the “winners” including the many clowns we see today. Normal voters are disengaged in spring or disillusioned more likely.
The Constitution should be asserted to move local and state elections to the same cycle as national or general elections, in November.
Then let the people suffer until they DO get engaged. A 3% turnout is a disgrace.
Ranked choice voting, combined with the voter fraud experienced in the last decade, would create a situation where votes are switched, combined, and twisted such that the public would never know who actually won, except that someone was picked to be the winner.
Apparently just what the left wants.
Do you think ? Ranked choice voting was the brain child of leftist democrats accepted by RINO republicans. And has been used to install candidates who couldn’t win in a one on one party line vote.
Whoever thought universal suffrage was a good idea should look around the world from the 20th century on. The masses will always vote for bread and circuses and will willingly follow the pied piper down the sinkhole.
