I found the second hour of the NYC debate. I feel like I discovered a very minor planet. — PolitiTweet.org

Yikes. Can anyone really argue that debate is helping any NYC voter make up his or her minds. It feels like a demolition derby. — PolitiTweet.org

In business “no one cares about excuses” is part of Yang’s answer giving an excuse for not voting in city elections for decades. — PolitiTweet.org

Lower voices and less obvious questions would improve this NYC debate. — PolitiTweet.org

After 20 minutes of this NYC debate, the chances of my voting for anyone for mayor has gone way up. This is not a great look for anyone on the debate stage. — PolitiTweet.org

I can see a brisk sale of commemorative T-shirts with the slogan, “I Watched the Second Hour of the June 2 Debate. Really. “ — PolitiTweet.org

From my @rollcall column: "I cling to the stubborn belief that American democracy will be saved by an outpouring of voters, in 2022 and beyond, who understand that the nation’s freedoms are on the ballot." https://t.co/iB90Fw0D11 — PolitiTweet.org

@CarlosLozadaWP Staying with the Upper West Side motif, I strongly recommend lunch at Barney Greengrass: The Sturgeon King on Amsterdam between 86th and 87th. And while it is a zoo on weekends, there are outside tables easily available on weekdays. And have the sturgeon, eggs and onions. — PolitiTweet.org

@LeoOD3 It is a very standard tactic except....when you're in a real bind as Schumer is with the filibuster. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Even though it pains me as an Oriole fan to write these words, the O's are in the midst of a 14-game losing streak in year 73 of their tear-it-down-to-the-walls rebuilding project. With just one-third of the season over, they are already 17.5 games off the pace. Yikes. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Sometimes political fund-raising appeals are a little more honest than you'd expect. I just got one from the DSCC, signed by Chuck Schumer, with the email headline, "We are in a real bind." — PolitiTweet.org

@DemFromCT @JillDLawrence @newrepublic Appreciate it. Just think of Koch, Mario Cuomo and Bella Abzug in the same primary (1977). — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@RadioFreeTom And it's not just state senate primaries in red states. Here is a wide open race for NYC mayor that will test both how the anti-crime issue plays among Democrats and how potent the far left is in a relatively high-turnout primary unlike those that chose nominees like @aoc. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@greenfield64 The Washington Post’s 1978 mayoral endorsement of...wait for it...Marian Barry was very influential. And I don’t rule out Kathryn Garcia winning the NYC mayor’s race thanks to a lot of second place votes based on Times and Daily News endorsements. — PolitiTweet.org

From my piece: "We may also have reached the tipping point, with the election of Donald Trump, when Tip O’Neill’s dictum—that all politics is local—has been reversed. These days, even local politics are national." — PolitiTweet.org

Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
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
Kevin Collins @kwcollins
Are any NYC mayoral campaigns making pacts with one another to encourage their supporters to rank the other campaign 2nd? If not, why not?
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@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
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@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
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@heathbrown I see your point. But New York isn't Phoenix. I think Rahm Emanuel would have qualified. And I thought Keisha Lance Bottoms was once headed in that direction. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@nathanmwilliams Sorry about that. I missed that detail about Burr. I think I will go back and delete my earlier tweet. — PolitiTweet.org
