Buffalo, NY - The Comeback Kid

[Perlen vor den Schweinen]

Yeah, early reports are that Walton is heavily behind write-ins. This one might be interesting or it might be over early.

I suspect this race will make primary losers in non-competitive races be a lot less shy about fighting to stay in office. I was kind of surprised Lacy Clay didn't.

If you're talking about running someone in Clay's position in the general, then it's because all states but NY, CT, and IA have sore-loser laws.

I'm pretty sure he could run a write-in campaign like Brown did? That's how Lisa Murkowski won after losing the primary.

Of course, that's much trickier in a Presidential year Congressional race than an off-year Mayoral race, so I'm not shocked he just took his pension and retired.

Maroon avatars celebrated prematurely when Walton won the primary.

Write-ins up 65-35 with the early vote counted.

This thing looks over

[Anti Democrat Democrat Club]

Yeah, this is extremely over.

Not by tricks or hack judges or whatever - Brown simply took the race seriously. Not a lot to be mad about here, an endorsement from Hochul or whatever wouldn't have flipped this race.

Well no, most of the local party leadership aligning with the Republicans and their donors would not have occurred in Virginia.

You're right. An entrenched machine candidate who can turn out the vote would have won in Virg...

Oh.

[NOVA Green]

Only 21% in according to the NYT???

Scroll down to the Mayoral Elections....

Not an expert on Buffalo but could well be that the EV is heavily from the White Cop / Firefighter type neighborhoods on the Southside?

Yeah, this is extremely over.

It's pretty sad that voters ignored his obvious corruption and failings as a mayor, but I guess it's their fault that Buffalo will continue to be mired in poverty as one of the worst American cities. It's been funny to see our worst hacks like Ray LOLfield and Generic Macaroni embrace this terrible candidate because le evil left, though. It just means we can take them even less seriously from now on.

You realize that Byron Brown is against everything in your signature and will make those things harder to achieve, right?

You're right. Local media has it 59 Write in, 41 Walton with 96% in (WGRZ)

I'm sorry you actually had to win a competitive general election after a sneak primary victory. This must be a very trying time for you.

"Sneak primary election" do you even hear yourself? If the roles were reversed, you'd be crying and shidding your pants right now like you usually do because a progressive refused to accept their primary loss.

Take all the time you need. I know it hurts.

And with that said, CNN calls it for Mayor Brown.

Thank you all for joining me for a thread I never expected to surpass 2 pages! lmao

Map of results.

[Ancestral Republican]

The coalition of Kander2020 and Ray LOLfield, two pathetic trolls, to support the write-in Republican is hilarious, but not unexpected. Hopefully Clown gets indicted for the things he's currently under investigation for.

Kinda like how everything you don't like is anti-Semitic, except this is based on reality (Republicans backing Brown) and not your own paranoid delusions.

Huge victory for Carl Paladino, Douglas Jemal, and the NY Republican Party. Major loss for Buffalo.

Go back to being a Republican, there's no point pretending to be a Dem anymore. You're probably cheering on Ciatarelli too.
