It's also a fact that Ana constantly praises a guy who HAS voted for weapons to Israel and is rated far worse on I/P by actual Palestinian advocacy groups

You can still win pretty easily because the primary electorate is so Queens heavy despite the geography, but I've long been skeptical Caban would be able to replicate what AOC has done in the Bronx portions of the district that matter. Is Caban putting up Assad margins in Soundview?

Zohran did significantly better with men consistently in primary polls. AOC also consistently does better with men in 2028 polls.

democratic men being more progressive has shown up again

he had 4% unfavorable in this poll. So there are a couple self-declared socialists who said yes to AOC and not him.

AOC squashes anyone, but I think Goldman would be a real threat to beat anyone else. It's something the NY left has to think about if Schumer does retire and she runs for president.

Are they just endorsing a bunch of campaigns this cycle to try to gain some clout hoping they'll hit on at least some of them?

I would think there's far more evidence small donors are snubbing these bigger groups because they're pissed at the party and just donating to candidates.

La Luchadora still cosplaying like she represents a majority Latino district

ok she is 100% endorsing Reynoso lmao

This district is probably where an AOC endorsement would mean more than any other district in America, so it will legitimately suck if she stays out of it. The fact Reynoso himself admitted during the mayoral primary he's never even spoke to AOC before has me hoping she will weigh in regardless.

Do you think AOC stays out of it if Nydia endorses Reynoso? Sterne seems convinced that she will.

If you want the truth nuke its mainly because she does better with Latinos

She slightly over performs the generic ballot in the verasight poll. They have it at 50.6-49.4 among registered voters when pushed.

I’ve seen people say this but I’m very skeptical. Assuming it’s Salazar, Gonzalez, or Valdez they’ll almost certainly have Nydia, AOC, Zohran, and the army of DSA volunteers. Don’t see how he beats that.

That race is significantly more appealing than Chi's. Espaillat is a paper tiger waiting to be toppled.

do you think there's a chance NYC DSA could endorse Darializa? I've seen multiple members vouch for her being legit on the other site.

I think a lot of people will assume it's a clown car because a lot of people will run, but whoever is backed by NYC DSA is almost certainly getting the endorsement of Nydia (because NYC DSA is going to back a Latina), AOC, and Zohran. Nobody is coming close to beating that in this district.

Nydia only cares about electing Latinas, so just nominate Salazar, Gonzalez, or Valdez and you've got the NYC DSA, AOC, Nydia endorsement trio on lock and have assured the primary win.

is Salazar running and winning in a walk?

apparently rumors she wants to be Hochul's LG choice for 26 lol

Manhattan is the ball game imo. This poll is the worst he's done there in recent polls and I also assume it's why he's doing worse with whites in this poll than others. Everything else about this poll besides Manhattan is honestly pretty perfect for him.

you should have polled AOC vs. Cuomo instead of AOC vs. Ritchie tbh

I find it so funny all these abundance guys are linking themselves to a conservative hedge fund manager polling at 0%

@socialconcarne.bsky.social

Jessica Fraudamos is campaigning with Cuomo in Jackson Heights

This does suck, but Sharpton actually does seem to be a fan of AOC. Something to keep in mind for a statewide run.

Barro and other centrist heads seem to view Garcia's 2021 campaign through a different lens than it actually existed. I've seen more people than Barro try to draw comparisons to Tilson and they just aren't similar...at all.
