[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brad Lander is extremely competent and knows city government and just got the NYT endorsement and you can't very well fault him on Gaza either. Also, even if you're specifically motivated by animus towards Mamdani, given that Mamdani and Lander are cross-endorsing, ranking Lander and *not* Mamdani increases the odds that Mamdani is knocked out in Lander's favor in the penultimate round, because it's going to be one of those two against Cuomo and the main thing your vote can do is influence which one.

So if you hate Mamdani but you also hate Cuomo then the logical choice is to rank Lander first, followed by four other people who aren't Mamdani and aren't Cuomo.[/quote]

I actually had the opposite reaction. I was considering Lander to be on my list but him aligning with Mamdani made him a non-starter. If I want a technocrat I will take Stringer over him, even with his cringy ads.

My list is Tilson, Cuomo, Stringer, unclear (it won't go past that).

This is all a disaster. [b]Maybe Garcia can run. [/b]Or Tisch.

Agree with the comment above about Mamdani and his apartment. Rent control/stabilization is out of control. It has its place but is way too widespread. It should be more carefully policed, have much tighter restrictions on inheritance, and should have increases at least at the level of inflation every year. Rent freezes are ridiculous. Are you not going to raise taxes on the building? Reimburse landlords for the large increases in utility costs? [/quote]

Hi, are you on crack? Garcia is not running. Live in reality with the rest of us.[/quote]
