But they prefer more crime than to live under the policies Rudy put in place so let them enjoy.


They don’t prefer such. DeBlasio is certainly gone. Likely Cuomo as well. But you are probably correct in general. They will probably elect MORE liberal hacks than those two....

They don't? They willingly voted in a guy who promised to go back to the old policies. Just look at the "defund the police" movement. These folks would rather the crime than the cops. Just saw off NYS at the Tappan Zee and keep the money upstate.

The Tappan Zee was demolished and replaced with 'The Gov. Mario Cuomo Bridge'. Another Governor we'd like to forget.

Will be fascinating to see who the GOP runs against Cuomo in 2022.

Pick a MAGA-moron and you guarantee him another term. A non-crazy GOP candidate could have a chance.

If the people dont like NY
Move or elect somebody else
Do you live in NY, if so, why. If not, why do you care so mucH
Ive never lived there, too cold, but a wonderful place to visit.
I had some of the best times in my life in NYC seeing the Grateful Dead at Madison Square Garden
Who do you support in NY? Who has the answers?
Stop all your whining. Its incredible how much you whine about NY

I don’t think so. NY is so solidly blue now... the proverbial ‘potted plant’ could beat a reasonable Republican candidate. The possibility of a non-Cuomo Democrat taking him on in the primary and winning before this scandal was essentially zero. Not so now. Ocasio-Cortez says she knows this guy who was a bus boy when she was a bartender, and he would be great! He has the skills to clean up the mess Cuomo will be leaving behind.....

I live here because of my roots here. My friends are mostly here. That being said, I will probably no longer live here for 7 months a year soon.

‘Move or elect someone else’ is possible for some, but not most. You built your small plumbing business, you advanced up the ladder at your local bank, you made it as a chef at a great restaurant, you are the shift manager at your BK, etc... you move and lose a lot. Not saying it is impossible....

Sell the plumbing business
Move to Texas

Congratulations KILLER joe bidumb!!

In the first month of your presidency, you have allowed the chinese flu to kill almost 100,000 Americans. During Trump’s presidency approx 35,000 Americans died per month from the chinese flu. Bidumb’s chinese flu death toll for ONE month is almost 25% of the total that died during Trump’s presidency.

Nearly 100,000 in U.S. Died from Coronavirus in Biden’s First Month in Office

I can say in my years there was very little moving to NYS. People got transferred in (me) or moved back after growing up and making their bones somewhere else. People moved upstate to get away from the city or off Long Island. Long Island is a weird, insular place. So hard to get off the island people just don't. Guys stay for businesses, jobs, and wives. Women stay because women generally do not like to relocate. Longer term it is emptying out. You do not get how dead the city economies are until you live somewhere else.
