The Democratic primary race for mayor was thrown into chaos Tuesday when the city Board of Elections appeared to have botched the count amid the city’s first ranked-choice election.

this is a DemocRAT ic state abd they’re used to FRAUD in elections – so who cares???????
We knew this was coming all along. DeBlasio promised his lovely wife Chirlane, that he would guarantee the most radical leftist candidate, fellow black female, Maya Wiley will be the next Mayor of this Sanctuary City. Mark my words. All this voter fraud corruption was orchestrated by DeBlasio to foist the black feminist anti cop anti law Wiley upon us. Eric Adams, they allege, is too right wing for the democrat party and they will pull all stops to make sure he never becomes Mayor. We have total chaos in this Sanctuary City now. Thanx Big Bird. Now former President Trump may have an argument that the election WAS stolen from him.
Here we go again…Not to mention that the rank-choice is itself a way to propel extremist candidates tot he front, if you think about it.
Hmmm. So how do we know that Fernando Mateo didn’t beat Curtis Sliwa?
The amount of hard earned tax dollars that’s wasted on this Polish election process is asenine and criminal. The entire voting process on Primary Day and the whole new scale system shows how absolutely dumb our officials are!

Doesn’t the federal election basically use the same infrastructure used by state and local elections?
