...they'd be leaning toward Sanders. Zephyr Teachout got @35% of the statewide vote and did that with a lot of rural votes.

to believe this would carry over into NY. It's good to hear that Teachout did so well.

She didn't do well in the outer NYC boroughs, only 22%. She won a bunch of counties in upstate NY.

No advertising and no fanfare. She got my vote! I hope she becomes our next AG.

She is pretty much despised here. I only see Sanders and Trump signs around me.

The driveways are rather long and the very large houses are far apart but it would be worth it!
