@ShijeSings @mayawiley The word "vibrant" was never used in the piece so I don't know what you're quoting. The only reference about the lack of dynamism was referring to the eight leading candidates as a group. If that sets off your outrage, I am truly baffled by the reaction. — PolitiTweet.org

@heathbrown I realize that there was the problem that mayors might only seem dynamic after they were elected. But, hey, NYC also gave us a primary (1977) in which Ed Koch was the most boring candidate compared to Cuomo and Abzug, not to mention Black and, I believe, Latino candidates. — PolitiTweet.org

The question was asked in the first debate: "Donovan said Wiley, McGuire and Yang said Garcia and Wiley said Morales. " The others ducked. Larger strategic point is that most campaigns can't figure out a ranked-choice strategy so they are not taking risks. https://t.co/Z4uLS7MUws — PolitiTweet.org

Are any NYC mayoral campaigns making pacts with one another to encourage their supporters to rank the other campaign 2nd? If not, why not?
