A new law simplifies NY primaries (one day in June for both federal/state) but it has yet to really promote turnout if the key race where an AOC type upstart appears to have won (after a long term incumbent died in office) as Queens prosecutor (more people than 15 states) is suggestive. Like 10% of registered voters took part, which along with no instant run-off voting (she barely won a plurality; the third place candidate got over 10% and was endorsed by police unions and such) very well might have helped the winner here. No Bronx races, but kept a close look at her returns online as she kept on holding on to a thin lead. Reform possible.
