I like this @bradlander.bsky.social guy! Rank him and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #1 and #2 - you pick the order! Then fill the rest of your ballot with NON-CUOMO candidates - I recommend Adrienne Adams, Michael Blake, and Zellnor Myrie, fwiw. #NoCuomo #NeverCuomo

I'm voting Myrie (for housing policy) and Lander (for general competence) above Mamdani, but a Mamdani mayoralty with Lander as a deputy mayor would probably be a very good mayoralty

One thing that stood out really powerfully in last night's mayoral debate is that Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander both operate from the premise that New York City is a wonderful and beautiful and precious place. Andrew Cuomo does not.

Endorsement time. First, my own City Council district #CD35. The incumbent Crystal Hudson is facing insurgent challengers backed by some of the neighborhood's more vocal NIMBY groups (such as MTOPP). Hudson has been a strong supporter of City of Yes, open streets and better transportation options.

Governor JB Pritzker said to Rep. Mary Miller: "I am not going to be lectured to by somebody who extols the virtue of Hitler." Finally, someone says it to their faces.

Just a note to say I briefly worked on a campaign where @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was running field operations and saw him motivate a bunch of unpaid volunteers in an uphill battle race years ago and the idea that he’s under experienced in managing people is very funny to me.

Cuomo has zero excuse for mispronouncing Mamdani's name. That's a bullshit right wing racist tactic we've seen from the worst Republicans in the country. Don't rank Cuomo. Don't put him ANYWHERE on your ballot.

Explosive moment during tonight's NYC mayoral debate: Cuomo: "He’s never dealt with the city council, he’s never dealt with the Congress..." Mamdani: "I’ve never had to resign in disgrace...I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment."

We're making progress. It used to be that people would say New York City is not Amsterdam. Now they're saying 34th Street isn't 14th Street.

@jhweissmann.bsky.social should post this here and also, co-sign. (Also swap out Lander for Adams, or Lander for Stringer, or what-have-you). Total abandonment of a civic responsibility to the place it calls home.

New Danish study concludes that traffic noise is killing people: "A 14.9 decibel increase in road traffic noise [outside the home] was associated ... with an 8.1% increased risk of all-cause mortality." Traffic noise was much deadlier than air pollution. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40403531/

YES @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social: "The answer to the housing crisis is not more vacancies... To me, it is building more housing, such that we keep people in their home, have a rapid expansion of housing production that is BOTH private-sector AND public-sector-driven." youtu.be/rqVQlALRqaE?...

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

I’m hooting and hollering: “Zohran is proud not to have the experience of defunding the MTA, cutting Medicaid, empowering Republicans and resigning in disgrace after being credibly accused of serial sexual harassment,” Mamdani campaign spokesperson Andrew Epstein said about Cuomo’s comments.

I keep bringing up Andrew Cuomo’s decision to shut down Indian point as a reason not to vote for him. I think it’s especially persuasive because 1) it punctures the aura of competence he is trying to manufacture 2) primary swing voters support nuclear energy 3) he did it at RFK Jr.’s behest

NYC DOT is rolling out a new design for conventional bike lanes that will improve safety + visibility for everyone at crossings, where half of all traffic deaths occur. The agency will begin adding these along select new & existing lanes w/high crash rates. More: www.nyc.gov/html/dot/htm...

When you look at Trump's cratering immigration numbers, remember what Zohran Mamdani was already doing three months ago — while the rest of the Democratic party was still twiddling their thumbs on detaining student protestors and giving ICE more power:

Pretty big news out of San Jose re: Bart Extension. Don't know where this leaves us, presumably this kind of news doesnt leak unless the board will approve taking the offramp and repackaging the project, but there are shades of MBTA's Green Line Extension in here: www.kqed.org/news/1204332...

Some specific examples here: 1) he shut down a nuclear plant because RFK Jr. told him to, which has been replaced by fossil fuels 2) he forced out Andy Byford at the MTA because he was jealous that Byford was getting positive press 3) he wanted to build an overpriced backwards airtrain to LGA

The data is abundantly clear. If you want to beat Cuomo you have to rank Zohran even if you have qualms with him.
