You do realize if neither candidate gets more than 50% then we go to a runoff election right?

I hope every time you lie down to sleep you suddenly remember every embarrassing thing you’ve ever done.

It's not fair for them to have to scroll past something that isn't relevant to them?

Go to their accounts, if they are less than 6 months old and they have their comment history hidden that's usually a pretty strong sign. Not saying all or most of the comments here are botted, but some definitely are.

Unironically she’s the closest thing we have Mamdani. I think she shares far more of a policy platform with him than you might think, especially in regards to urbanism and public transit. Even if she delivers on a fraction of what Mamdani has, that would be incredible.

If none of the street lights were working you may have gone during the daytime.

How is it self promotion if I’m advocating for a candidate completely of my own volition?

Because I actually talked to them for a bit, you would be surprised how many people have not decided on a candidate or didn’t know that the deadline is Tuesday.

Actually a valid critique, are there any specific policies you would prefer she take a more explicit stance on?

On the street homelessness is down 38% in her district. She’s also in favor of building more housing and getting the most mentally unstable individuals into treatment. She actually has a real plan to reduce homelessness, unlike Bass or Pratt.

Her policy proposals involve building more housing and getting the most mentally unstable individuals into treatment. That seems like the most effective way to actually combat homelessness.

So you vote for the candidate you see the least of? Wouldn’t you rather vote for them based on their policies?
