Local Elections

I get that it's just a local outlet's name, but the 'Ogle Mole Network' doesn't exactly flood me with sourcing confidence.

They are largely a satirical/joke blog/website. But has actually broken open a good amount of stories where local news has not, which makes it funny when the local news has to cite them.

It's wild because he's the Bush who has hugged Trump's nuts the whole time, unlike the rest of his family.

O wow, he is just like me.

Wait i don't ride a bike.

[Andalusian girls]

[Tokitoki]

Nah, he's staying in the bike lane so he clearly doesn't ride a bike in NYC.

[Koyangi]

[Milkster]

He's never ridden his bike in NYC if this ain't happen

Being removed from existence?

Didn't listen to most of it cause it was a cacophony of noise, but it seemed that a lady attacking a cyclist because he hit her friend while they were walking in the bike lane.

Did he say whether Westchester is upstate. If so, he's either from NYC or Long Island. But he's from somewhere north near Albany isn't he? My man probably says Albany is the Capital Region.

Those are all gold. My vote is for the intern eater.

Boy Yang really fell apart at the end, looks like the weird vegan cop from New Jersey is going to be the next NYC mayor.

He is unlikely to get 50%, so we will get to see ranked choice voting in action. If the current numbers hold, they would have to redistribute all the votes up through at least Yang (30% of the vote) to get Adams to 50%. Most likely they will have to redistribute until they only have two left.

Thus, it is really going to come down to the rankings.

Logic here is that he is at 31%, which means he needs another 19% for a majority. Until someone has a majority, they eliminate the losing candidate and choose the next person on the rankings of the people who voted for that candidate. If a ranking runs out of candidates, I assume it is dropped. Anyway, even if he was second place for all the losing candidate ballots, he would still need at least 19% to be reallocated. The top 4 have 84% of the vote, so the race will have to collapse down to 3 to get anyone to 50%. In addition, he would have to be crazy popular in the rankings to not need to collapse it to top 2. The winner might come down to whether Wiley or Garcia is in 3rd.

I appreciate the chaos of ranked choice voting.
