Anyone know anything about Alessandra Biaggi? She's challenging Klein. There's canvassing scheduled for her in my neighborhood today. Her website has her as anti-IDC but everything else on there seems uninspiring, and she also worked for Crowley, Hillary, and Cuomo. Oh lmao she's Mario Biaggi's grandaughter, a cop and politician convicted of corruption. I guess she checks the most important box of "not Klein."

Yeah. She's young and seems hot off the dynastic politician production press but I'm going to vote for her. I live in Pelham and she is tight with our local Democratic group but even here it seems nobody has much sense of her beneath the "no IDC" message / as a human being.

matt i'm 95% certain you've made those two posts with the exact same words before. i think she sways with the wind without having any beliefs of her own, which is dangerous enough as it is (see also: Suraj Patel). it just so happened the wind was blowing leftward middle of last year but the DCCC is putting a muzzle on that, and the house always wins as we've seen from tonight's primary results

The last time I looked into it, gillibrand was one of the best Senators with respect to Syria. She opposed obama’s moves toward regime change I don’t want to say that’s still the case without doing due diligence but if it is, I’m With Her

That being said I'm willing to give her a 1-time mulligan if she at least continues to vote correctly.

really all the senate dems are dogshit and i hope a governor or something emerges to run in 2020 i'm not as perturbed at the prospect of another 'bad dem' president as some ppl since then at least ppl will feel compelled to organize independently of the campaign apparatus, whereas with, say, a president sanders, all the left-liberal energy will go to defending the sitting US president. and recent events have shown that sitting dem officeholders can respond to independent organizing pressure ~ even sitting gop officeholders as in the wake of the teachers' strikes

GalacticAcid posted:really all the senate dems are dogshit and i hope a governor or something emerges to run in 2020 i think the only two options for progressive democrats is to hope and pray for president sanders, or hope and pray for their chosen centrist candidate to lose bigly to trump and for the blue wave to not happen this year. and well, the blue wave is in serious jeopardy since the democrats have been sabotaging progressives and backing ex-intelligence officers and even anti-abortion dems, so hey.

I don't know though, there are a lot of chuds out in the boondocks of the district, and I'm not sure Kingston can carry it, especially if they start pulling out the socialist carpetbagger stuff on whoever gets the nomination.

It looked like actual leftie policy was gonna be big in the middle of last year, so she was all for that at the time. But when DCCC is saying otherwise, she'll go with that. She's still better than a Cuomo, who is an arch-corporate Democrat who will never ever compromise on that position, but she's insincere.

get that OUT of my face posted:She owes her career to the WFP. Their endorsement put her over the top when she ran for city council in the district now held by Laurie Cumbo. From there she went on to become public advocate. So her buckling to Cuomo's tyranny is even more of a shock than Gillibrand making an idpol remark regarding finance. And I'm not exaggerating with "tyranny" either, he's like Trump but competent. She's pressureable, which means that she's better to have with a progressive Congress that an actual Cuomo. That being said, Cuomo is basically letting Nixon set his agenda now, so I'm not sure what's going on with him.

By contrast, the Democratic Conference received about $4.2 million for staff, despite having nearly three times as many members.

Andrew Cuomo to a fellowship with the State University of New York's Hispanic Leadership Institute He really does choose the best people.
