On October 27, I was campaigning lawfully outside the 100 foot line at a Brooklyn polling place. I called the NYPD for help. The 72nd Precinct gave me two criminal summonses instead.

It seems the Board of Elections is engaging in election law violations again this election season. I believe some of its employees have demonstrated unprofessionalism, bigotry, and incompetence. Once again.

My son’s first vote and how New York State failed him
My son was excited to cast his first ballot, although he was less enthusiastic than expected. In retrospect, older generations are to blame for providing a subpar “citizen journey” experience. From a ...

I’m really happy that Lander and Mamdani actually realized how to take advantage of RCV: it’s not how things went last time.
NYC’s importation of fusion voting is a scourge, but that’s down to NYCBoE incompetence rather than a problem with the concept itself. :(

Fixing the NYCBoE would be a massive undertaking with a huge capital cost, and the problem is that step one is “competent management” and if the city had that on tap they’d already be using it.

1. NYCBOE plans to run initial ranked choice voting rounds tomorrow for NYC mayor. I'm assuming that based on unofficial results there'll be just 1 instance of vote transfers (from Round 1 to 2). There’s a *mathematical possibility* Cuomo could win, but very unlikely. More in the 🧵 below.

With NYCBOE it's like the hardest situation possible to tell whether its incompetence of malice. Both true that they're a notoriously badly managed patronage mill agency AND that there's a machine-led conspiracy to rig elections in NYC that sometimes allegedly ropes in BOE for shenanigans.

Now the khivers are upset that nobody reminded them to vote in the primary ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
We only had multiple televised debates that also streamed on YouTube. NYCBOE also always sends out multiple mailers that include info for mail in voting. Plus like a full week of early voting?

The NYCBOE also sent out mailers reminding people to vote, including information about to optionally mail in a ballots. My Jewish snowbird parents mailed in their early votes for Lander from Florida. My retired next door neighbor was canvassing for Lander multiple times a week.

Unofficial rank choice rounds published by NYCBOE today. In the mayoral election 74% of voters who didn't rank Cuomo or Mamdani #1 ranked at least one of them somewhere on their ballots, so their votes did not become inactive.

I think a lot about how much better off we’d be today if the NYCBOE (one of the city’s most utterly incompetent agencies) better explained to 2021 primary voters that you can simply stop ranking candidates if you don’t like any of the remaining ones.

That's not true. The NYCBOE is picked by the parties (both of which hate Mamdani) and has carried out illegal voting purges before.
This is not evidence of foul play, but it is the perfect environment for the parties to shut out younger voters.
