On WNYC they are saying that the party will force Thompson out if it is close like they did to avoid a runoff in 1997 when the Democrats had no chance. After 20 years out of power in NYC, they want to win. Last check it was 40.16%. What is Paul Egan (UFT political director) doing right about now?
You're a true trooper !
ReplyDeleteI'm crazy!
Delete97% counted and 40.15% is holding up.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, and yet I get the feeling the Thompson campaign is going to stick in this no matter what de Blasio gets.

Hmmm...wonder how much other propaganda the major media in this town peddled to ya the last 12 years...?
Please research other propaganda driven societies throughout history...you may become alarmed ...
The newspaper editorial writers shilled as best they could, but to no avail. People can't be fooled all of the time.
