The general election won’t have ranked choice. Adams and Cuomo may end up splitting the “willing to vote for corrupt dirtbag” ticket and let Mamdani cruise to victory.
Yes, that’s probably correct. It’ll be late in the race, because both of them are pig headed and want the other one to do it. That will only drag down whomever does end up staying in. It’ll be a glorious game of political chicken. I’m ordering all the popcorn now.

We can dream.
I expect one or the other will get pressured/bribed into dropping out.

I thought the donors were going to pick one and push out the other, but web search indicates that hasn’t been successful yet. We’ll see.
They fight amongst themselves, too.
They’re all sociopaths. You can use that fact to predict how they function.
Yep, two shit bag neoliberals running I and an actual Republican.
This is both good for Mamdani and what will be used as an excuse when he wins.
Is the Republican even relevant in NYC this election? I saw this as Lieberman for Connecticut redux.
yes they have won NYC elections in the past, nyc has a habit of choosing a republican, or Democrat that works with republicans.
The Republican is the Guardian Angels guy from the 80s, he’s probably not relevant outside of Staten Island, and a few old cat ladies.
Careful. He has huge name recognition.
Not necessarily for good reasons, though. Particularly over the last decade or so.
He doesn’t even have the “just woke up from a 40-year coma” vote sewn up, since there’s a Cuomo running…
If there’s 3 “Democrats” running, he might be.
May it be so.
