No clue what is reasoning is here...
|
|
| |
Mondire's reasoning is simple: he's used to running in open seats, this seat is open

LOL - he has only run one other time. Am I missing something did he run in some other open seat we don't have listed here?
I think his reasoning is this district is probably more open to electing a person from outside the district. Park Slope and Lower Manhattan - if there are ppl there are are "natives" they are certainly vastly outnumbered by non-natives.
He also said it in his announcement - he is a gay man and this is the home of Stonewall. He is hoping a built in LGBT constituency gives him some automatic base.

The seat he ran for was open.
He originally planned to primary Nita Lowey, but she retired not that long after he jumped in: thus giving him the advantage of running in an open seat.
Mondaire's not used to primarying people, so this is the path of least resistance

Winner of this race may not crack 30%, and they'll grab a congressional seat.

Councilwoman Rivera is currently a slight betting odds favorite over Representative Niou. Should be an interesting race.

Luzerne County Historian: Poor Jones
Seems worse for De Blasio for me.

BrentinCO: Seems worse for De Blasio for me.
But who gives a **** about him.... Jones has it worse cuz he was robbed from his seat

Heh, robbed. No one is guaranteed or owns a seat in Congress.

WA Indy: Heh, robbed. No one is guaranteed or owns a seat in Congress.
Yes robbed.

I mean to be fair, nothing was stopping Jones from running against Maloney in his own district. Maloney isn’t some kind of electoral juggernaut, it would’ve been competitive. He made an extremely poorly thought out decision to carpetbag to NYC and it looks like he’ll likely be a one termer because of it.

The plan was actually gonna be in his favor. Since NY Dem Party was trying to run him against Bowman, where they'd back him.
But he chose this route thinking he'd have a path...guess he was wrong

My point isn't who is gives a **** about him, more that it seems to me he should be pulling more than 3 - 5% in polls.
For a guy that served 2 terms as Mayor and ran for President, to only be placing last or 2nd to last in polls is pretty bad.
Its pretty embarrassing - worse that way.
