The 2014 primary season ends (Sept. 9: DE, MA, NH, NY, RI)

[Flake]

Cuomo at 61% at the moment. Is it too much to hope for that he gets held under 60?

Cuomo at 59.9%

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Stop the count!

AP finally calls Dem. primary for Cuomo.

RIP Ziggy Shuttlesworth

Coakley wins Democrat nomination in Massachusetts.

[Lief 🗽]

AP calls it for Hochul too.

[Flake]

Maybe Teachout can run for state Senate. Same with Wu.

[Flake]

I think Howie Hawkins should concentrate his efforts on the counties that Teachout won.

Madison, Washington and Ontario are Teachout/Hochul counties. Essex is Cuomo/Wu.

[Maxwell]

I would be dumbfounded if Republicans didn't use this Teachout/Wu ad against Hochul.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

The thrashing that Teachout administered to Cuomo in Schoharie turns out to be harsher than the one in Tompkins after all.

Hochul isn't running separately in the general election.  New York votes for a combined Gov/Lt. Gov ticket.

Corrupt Cuomo + Flip Floppin Hochul. Quite a ticket.

Astorino doesn't have the money to run ads.  The RGA isn't helping him, either.  Without an upset by Teachout, Cuomo is definitely getting reelected.  Astorino will be lucky to receive as much of the vote as Teachout + Credico did so far.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Essex has finally flipped to Teachout.

Essex has finally flipped to Teachout.

Now if only Franklin can flip, it would make for a very visually appealing map.

"So it doesn't look like I'm going to be the next Governor of this state, but it's still a big moment and I want to celebrate it."

She reminds me of Rachel Maddow.

I'm confused as to why Franklin was ever in the Cuomo column to begin with, honestly.

I doubt Astorino would be as effective in keeping the Senate Republican as Cuomo.

Eagerly awaiting a NYC (well, mostly Manhattan) precinct map for the Wu-Hochul race.

could Teachout have won the white vote?

I don't have the local knowledge you and Averroes do, but I'd speculate that in a low-turnout primary like this one, the correctional unions play a major role in supporting the establishment. Franklin is a big prison county, with multiple correctional facilities in Malone.

I'd entirely forgotten about the prisons. Thanks for reminding me.
