It remains to be seen after absentee ballots are counted plus ranked choice voting. Will be interesting to see if next phase will only include top 2 vote getters or top 3.

Not so fast. AOC’s pet candidate Wiley Coyote still has a shot.

Besides, Adams would have to get past Curtis Sliwa first.

In actual practice, it's done one step at a time. The summary reporting ought to include at least the top 3. Garcia definitely has a good chance to edge out Wiley as the candidate who ends up in the final runoff with Adams.

I was not sure if they ran it one step at a time or they just took the candidates who mathematically could not get to 50% off the table at one time. Personally I don't see how anyone under Garcia can get to 50% and Yang has already conceeded. Since Wiley is unlikely to be #2 on more ballots of Yang and Co. than Garcia, I am sure she is going to want Garcia out of the running when the next round is run and you can really skew RCV to a desired candidate based on how you make that initial cut.

TNHIW. They eliminate the last place person each round. So the next round will include all the serious candidates (Adams, Garcia, Yang, Wiley, Stringer, Morales, McGuire, and Donovan) and eliminate the joke candidates like Paperboy Love Prince.

Will be interesting to see the order of disqualification of the main candidates.

Eric Adams has a history of supporting lou Farrakhan and the nation of islam. I hope Curtis Sliwa pulls off an upset.

Eric adams headed a group called 100 black men in law enforcement, clearly a racist organization. There is no reason to believe that he now rejects the very racism that has served him well in the past.

I am sure they run it one step at a time.

Not sure what you're getting at in terms of skewing, but the second through fifth choices of people who voted for Paperboy Love Prince as their #1 are exactly as important as the second through 5th choices of those who chose Andrew Yang as their first choice.

Assuming that only Adams, Wiley, and Garcia have a chance, the order in which every single voter ranked those three matters for the final outcome. Paperboy Love Prince, Yang, Adams, Wiley, Garcia becomes exactly as much an eventual vote for Adams (or possibly Wiley) as simply Adams, Wiley, Garcia does.

I hope not. Sliwa is a joke candidate, like Trump for president, but at least I think that Sliwa is a loyal American citizen.

You're saying the Satmar Hasidim are not religious?

I've heard lots of allegations about them, but that's the first time I've heard that one.

By the way, Rupert Murdoch endorsed Adams.

My gut feel is that Garcia will edge out Wiley but probably then lose to Adams.

I'm confused. They all claim he's friendly to the Jews. I hope they don't learn their lesson for the 50th time, but apparently he's supported security policing and bills to protect them prior.

I'm not Jewish. That doesn't mean I can't raise my eyebrows at your calling the Satmar Hasidim of NYC "allegedly religious."

Don't forget that you've raised doubts about the legitimacy of the Pope.

Of course, your hopes are irrelevant. :)

Sliwa 2021 is not Bloomberg 2001. Adams would have to be videoed killing someone on 5th Avenue, to use an old phrase.

Adams v. Sliwa

That would be an interesting election match-up.

A former cop against a washed up vigilante.

Which one would push for law and order harder.

In the 70's I was a member of a civilian patrol on Co-op City

Sliwa wanted to bring his Guardian Angels in to "protect" the community. The whole community told him NO.

As a group who worked with the NYPD, my organization knew a vigilante when we saw one.

Yep, even now, thousands of New Yorkers are secretly making additional ballots for Wiley.

And yet none of them will EVER tell the news media or any of the other candidates about their perfidous deeds.

PS. What on earth makes you think the Board of Elections and all its minions are uniformly Wiley supporters? All it would take is one defector.

That'd be a miracle.

Some point to Sliwa's past liberal-media-publicized hoaxes to make it look like he's anti-police, but something tells me he would not be anything like De Blasio in that respect if he actually did attain the office, but very pro-police and anti-crime.
