Tonight I'm texting Nancy Pelosi and asking HER for $5

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November. Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

"Andrew Cuomo is visibly upset and people are crying"

History would look so different if more politicians had taken Brad Lander’s path of recognizing that there were bigger things at stake than his ego

It’s Handsome Brown Boy Summer you fucks

If you're a member of the Democratic gerontocracy, the chances of you catching a primary challenger just went up 1000%.

now, to elect brad lander god-emperor

IT ISN’T THEIR PARTY, IT’S OURS AND WE DECIDE

plenty of my fellow libposters will say that the mayoral race of new york does not matter nationally, and they are mostly right, but what does matter is that good, charismatic campaigns work, and i would like to see my libposters give some credit to that.

on top of just being purely blissfully happy there's the incredible spite bonus that every soulless little ghoul who decided to pretend they hadn't ever denounced cuomo is getting absolutely nothing in return

good bye andrew cuomo. im not sure ive ever been in the same state as you but i bet you stink

I hope he’s having a nice night

Good. And other Democrats should be grateful for the lifeline.

brad lander for consigliere

This should be a very loud wake-up call for the Dem party

i would like it a lot of zohran did whatever it takes to keep lander involved with the campaign. ride a tandem bike with him in your ads man this is great stuff

It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

I know we’re all over the moon about Zohran but Brad Lander is truly the Bluesky candidate

you can't draw a lot of conclusions from a single race. there are external factors, flawed candidates, the right political climate. but one conclusion you can absolutely draw is that all of the people who tell you that there's only one way things can be are fucking wrong

Brad Lander has arrived at his election night party. "The ranked choice tabulations will take a few days, but this much is clear: We are sending Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs," Lander said to applause. "With our help, Zohran Mamdani will be the Democratic nominee"

Lander deserves a ton of respect for his willingness to subordinate his desires to blow up a genuinely evil man's campaign.

gotta say, Brad Lander's really walked the walk in these past weeks and it's not something I'll soon forget

according to conservatives on the court, the constitution does not protect your right to your own body but does enable the government to ship you off to a foreign gulag without any hope of return

Do the right thing: rank me #1, Zohran #2, and DON'T RANK ANDREW CUOMO.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Whether visible or invisible, permanent or temporary, almost all of us will have or know someone with a disability. As Mayor, I’ll fight like hell for truly accessible public transit.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

The president of the United States in our time is not supposed to wield armed troops and even station marines on American soil because of political speech and assembly he doesn’t like, that is typically not allowed and no I don’t care if any of it is technically “legal”

the clear message of this administration is that if your city or state didn’t vote for Donald Trump you do not have the right to self-governance and that will be enforced by the United States military we know what they are
