What an indictment of American political culture, where the entire populace has surrendered to the "lesser of two evils" bullshit. Curtis Sliwa is such a genuine person and an actual populist that he's the only candidate that both parties liked. Cuomo is such a piece of shit that he's the only candidate that NEITHER party liked. And yet all the Republicans and centrists turned out for Cuomo instead of Sliwa. What the fuck.

>>521023822One of the two should have dropped out. Not that it made a difference in the end (maybe it could have depending how the debates went with only 2 candidates) Zogran Slumdani still won >50% of the vote because NYC is full of retarded shitskins and actually, even more retarded liberal white women who both have done nothing but drag this country to the deepest grave.
>>521023822he wore a raspberry beret. the kind you find in a secondhand store.
>>521023822Sliwa has massive optics problems like that red beret that makes him look like a communist.
>>521023961>One of the two should have dropped out.Sliwa was the Republican candidate. Cuomo already lost the first time when he was rejected by his own party for being a disgraced scumbag.
>>521023822Cuomo stayed in to ensure mandani won
>>521023822because he was a meme candidate from the start. nobody ever took him seriously. this boomer barely won 7 percent of the vote and should have dropped out.
>>521024276>because he was a meme candidate from the start. nobody ever took him seriously.
>>521024276>MY POLITICAL PLAN IS TO TAKE MONEY FROM THE STATE>Now that I won, I will be meeting with top policymakers because I now feel the need to admit I am both dishonest and also have no idea about anything at allLet's not talk about who is a meme, here.
Sliwa is literal human garbage>LARP as some red beret wearing Batman for 40 years>use this grift to get high paying media jobs and donations>would rather hand the city over to a defund the police socialist rather than drop out of the race
>>521023822I like sliwa because he took care of dozens of abandoned cats and rehomed them
>>521024382>>because he was a meme candidate from the start. nobody ever took him seriously.Trump was a meme candidate for about 3 weeks until he started surging in the polls, then winning primaries. Sliwa has been in this shit for 40 years. He's the "oh he's running again" candidate.
>>521023822>>521023870if I pull that hat off would he die
>>521024673He took it off for the debate
He had a chance if he lost the beret.
>>521024067>>521024793As far as American politics goes, a goofy hat is unironically still better optics than being bald, unfortunately.
>>521024067Do you think the 82'd airborne look like communists?>>521024710They're smearing Sliwa because, having been a street-level crime fighter for decades, Sliwa knows what those Brooklyn Rabbis are doing to all those children who go missing. Mamdani was literally a Hollywood creation invented just in time for this specific reason. By the way, do we have any pictures of Sliwa wearing a Kippah?
bump
>>521024057>>521024067We went too hard with brand awareness for his militia
>>521023822Sliwa is the only New Yorker that was a candidate and he would unironically be a good mayor because he loves his city.
>>521023822>>521023961>>521024181Ranked choice voting solved this. At the moment, Dems are pushing it because they had good luck with one or two elections and are feeling their oats. Reps are against it because their main voter base is too senile to fill out a ranked ballot. But this goes beyond party politics. Ranked-choice means enfranchisement of people who want clean rivers or constitutional carry without white genocide lumped in. When Dems stole the Georgia senate election, they had to print enough ballots to override a runoff, because they know they can't win in the marketplace of ideas.
