CNN reports, “9 Democratic primaries to watch in 2018“:
“… there is a lot worth watching as Democrats sort out their candidates, and priorities, ahead of the November 2018 elections. Here are a few races, some big and others probably below the radar, that could give us a hint about where the party is headed … 6. New York: Who’s going to take a run at Cuomo? … a tougher-than-expected 2018 primary race could take a potential 2020 presidential bid off the table for Cuomo — and augur trouble for similar, more moderate blue-state Democrats around the country …”
“… Outgoing Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner and New York City Councilman Jumaane Williams, both Democrats, were coy in a joint radio appearance Thursday when asked if they might unite to form a gubernatorial ticket next year …”
Miner is the better known of the two which, in this case, isn’t saying much.
On 2A, both are antigun. Miner is an advocate while Williams is an activist.
How much of a threat to the Governor would they be?
Previous polling shows Cuomo would defeat Miner in a primary. I am unaware of any polling regarding Williams, but the Democrat base has problems with him on other social issues.
Jacob,
I was going to vote NO on the constitutional convention cuz I would not want that bunch of far left loons doing that, but I keep reading that THEY are also opposed. What say you?
Going to vote Yes. Will do a separate post on it.
