    Default why would NY re-elect Deblasio?

    the guy is a failure. increasing homeless and crime. He sleeps afternoons away on a sofa.

    I can't think of any reason to elect him

    De Blasio refuses to answer: Do you sleep on the job?
    http://nypost.com/2017/09/20/de-blas...ep-on-the-job/
    Mayor de Blasio wouldn’t say whether he naps at City Hall when asked about his sleeping routine Wednesday.


    Former staffers revealed last month that de Blasio routinely took siestas on a couch in his City Hall office, a claim his press office responded to at the time by denying he “regularly” snoozes on the job.

    You voted for an inept Reality TV Star, and relentlessly defend him irrespective of the fact that he has no accomplishments and does not seem to have a rudimentary grasp on basic governance. Yet you still spend most of your waking hours defending him with every fiber of your being.

    You know what that means?

    Yep, that's right. You have no standing - none, nada, zilch - to pass judgment on other people's voting choices.

    Mayor de Blasio cruised to re-election Tuesday — and now New Yorkers are stuck with him for another four years.

    Although he glided to victory, the mayor needed to weather a corruption scandal that loomed over City Hall for months.

    In March, prosecutors decided to end an investigation into the mayor’s fund-raising practices without filing charges — while leveling harsh criticism of his end run around election laws.

    More recently, the administration was rocked by courtroom testimony from admitted pay-to-play crook Jona Rechnitz, who claimed that six-figure campaign donations scored him direct access to the mayor.

    Never behind in the polls and facing under-funded challengers, de Blasio skated in without addressing major problems simmering since he took office in 2014.

    With homelessness at near- record levels and the subways crumbling amid his escalating feud with Gov. Cuomo, the mayor has his work cut out for him in his second term.

    Despite pledging “more transparency in government” during his 2013 campaign, de Blasio had to be sued by The Post and NY1 to cough up his e-mails with political advisers who he claimed were “agents of the city.”

    The mayor has since refused to release records of his telephone calls with Rechnitz.

    crime is down everywhere, except for the dysfunctional Baltimore and Chicago,
    He's corrupt. the taxes are insane and the transit system ( which could use the money instead of a dubious universal pre-K) is falling apart. small business are closing causing blight, along with homeless camping out

    Oh well. "It ain't me babe" ( Dylan)

    67% of New York voters supported the Mayor, that is a massive win for him!

    Why would you expect any different in NY?

    They saw a democrat on the ballot and they voted for the D. It starts and stops there. To be fair there are just as many on the right that do the same thing
