    I have held my nose and voted for this rat-fuck in every election of my adult life. I keep hoping someone who actually cares about New Yorkers will primary him.

      You can do more than hope. Find a qualified challenger and volunteer on their campaign if you have the time. Stump for them in your area.

        Only way to get elected if you’re north of Westchester County is to get appointed to the position first.

        I wish I was exaggerating, but Hillary Clinton and Bobby Kennedy are the only non-NYC/non-incumbent senators the state has elected in nearly 70 years.

          Mamdani is proof that NYC is ready to embrace a non establishment Democrat. I hope a good challenger to Schumer emerges
