    Hey, democratic party, you see that? Maybe actually standing for left stuff instead of continuously going more right to appease people who would never vote for you anyway actually works?

      They’re in it to please their sponsors, not the electorate. Most corporate Democrats are perfectly happy to let the far right take over.

      Not to say you’re wrong, but do not trust these numbers at all. This is just Fox News scaremongering their base to believe the “socialist threat” is imminent and motivate more of them to hit the polls to vote R.

      I’d say this is more the crowd who votes for change, like the ones who voted Trump and AOC on the same ballot. Still stands to show Dems need to move left if they want any chance.

      They’re going to ignore it and move to the right.

      But they don’t want leftist policy, they want to make money and the right gives them that.

    This man looks like the antagonist’s hecnhman in a low budget 90s movie. This man looks like his only line was “yeah, boss, tell em!”. This man looks like he meets a cartoonish end in act 3 after the hero riles him up by questioning his strength.

      In 1992, Sliwa admitted that he and the Guardian Angels faked heroic subway rescues for publicity. He also admitted to having claimed falsely that three off-duty transit police officers had kidnapped him. Sliwa explained at the time his stunts were intended to underscore the dangers of the subways.

    This wasn’t a Fox News poll, this was a Siena poll, which as far as I can tell is actually a reputable source for poll numbers.

    https://sri.siena.edu/2025/08/12/hochul-approval-favorability-ratings-up-a-little-hochul-lead-over-stefanik-in-2026-race-falls-to-14-points-45-31-from-23-points-47-24-in-june-voters-say-if-stefanik-runs-is-elected-g/

    You can find all these specific numbers in the crosstab if you care to.

      It’s also “among conservatives” and with Fox News viewers, an implied, but incorrect assumption that they are the majority. Well, maybe NYC is mostly conservatives, but if they were actually confident, they wouldn’t feel the need to be weasely about things.

      He’s THE guy with a beret. Look him up. He founded the “Guardian Angels”, who volunteered to patrol New York against crime back in the 70s/80s(?). Vigilantes? Their “uniform” included a red beret.

    The 9% of New Yorkers that still think that Eric Adams is their best option amaze me.

    But then again, Trump. Twice. There are many idiots.

    It says a lot when racist Batman gets 40%. The NY mayoral race has always been a circus, so I’m not celebrating Zohran’s victory yet.
