SaysWho? Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 The voter turnout thing is lolzy. By all accounts, candidates like her should win with higher turnout if they're truly inspiring people who sit out to actually go to the polls. She may be the more progressive choice, but I wasn't impressed with her as I was with, say, Stacey Abrams or Andrew Gillum. However, her campaign was still successful. She got Cuomo off his complacency and pushed him to the left on a host of big issues he should be more progressive on, and she's right about her campaign being the catalyst behind the IDC's dissolution. Good for her for what she did. Now I'm curious if she decides to still run on the ballot or if she'll sit it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaladinSolo Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Yeah, it was no doubt it was good she ran, but she just never seemed like someone you should really vote for, the fact that the IDC was gutted last night also means it was her not her platform.

Jason Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 3 hours ago, PaladinSolo said: Nixon's campaign is complaining too many people turned out to vote in the NYS primaries.... If you read the actual statement, it's pretty clear that's not what she meant and that she's being purposefully misinterpreted: Quote Nixon's team cited what they called an "unconscionable influx in spending" from Cuomo's campaign, labor unions and the state Democratic Party, which Cuomo helps fund and which sent mailers critical of Nixon to voters across the state. "The result of this unconscionable influx in spending is that turnout is extremely high throughout the state today," Nixon's team wrote in the memo. "This is likely due to two factors: tens of millions of dollars in advertisements from Andrew Cuomo pushing voters to the polls; and a desire on the part of prime Democratic voters to send a message to [President] Trump for the first time since his election." http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/406653-cynthia-nixon-camp-blames-high-turnout-for-loss It's not exactly artfully phrased, of course. She also said: Quote Nixon's team said fewer polling hours in upstate New York, where they said their candidate polled better than in New York City, and reports of voting problems in New York City neighborhoods where Nixon polled better than anywhere else, had combined to squelch their vote. "[P]olling places were open for fewer hours in many upstate counties than in New York City and its suburbs today. Cynthia routinely polled higher in upstate, while Cuomo’s strength was in the counties where polls were open before work. Finally, there have been rampant reports today that many voters in Cynthia’s base neighborhoods (eg, Brownstone Brooklyn) were unable to vote in their polling locations," the memo reads. The memo also suggested that Nixon had fallen victim to the same set of circumstances as liberal challengers to incumbent Democrats in Rhode Island and Delaware earlier this week. The campaign cited wins by Delaware Sen. Tom Carper (D) and Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo (D), both of whom beat little-known opponents who challenged them from the left. "The trend this week in statewide primaries involving incumbents has been clear: the centrist, corporate-backed incumbent with a massive war chest and statewide name ID has won in blow-outs," the memo reads.

Jason Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Ted Cruz Campaign is Mailing Donation Requests Disguised as Legal Summonses Quote The brown envelopes read “SUMMONS ENCLOSED- OPEN IMMEDIATELY” in large black letters, and have a return address of “official county summons.” While the letter inside the envelope is a donation form for the Cruz campaign, there is some fear that certain voters may be confused by the mailer and think that they are required by law to pay a fee. Mailers of this kind are not illegal, so long as they include a clear disclaimer that the communication was paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
