NYC Primary A Bit More Final

Kathyrn Garcia had a quotable line in her concession speech (Wiley also conceded) last week: "People will try to hand you a jacket that's made for someone else. You don't have to accept it. Wear one that fits you.”

Things are more final today with only basically a handful of votes left. The difference is less than one percent, if not .5, which where an automatic recount is required. There doesn't appear to be any issues. Sigh. So close.

As I noted before, maybe Eric Adams is a sort of Biden (who he met recently to talk guns and such; ETA: also a bit of a lovefest with Cuomo/ugh), and overall is okay, especially with progressives around him. I still am not too excited and maybe a third party protest/symbolic vote is in my future. There are options. No ranked choice. Meanwhile, the public advocate marries a lobbyist. Not a big deal really, I guess, but a tad depressing.
