Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
New Yorkers agree: Mayor de Blasio shouldn't run for president, new poll finds
New York Daily NewsWho is clamoring for Mayor de Blasio to run for president?
Pretty much nobody, according to a new Quinnipiac poll.
A whopping 76% of New Yorkers polled said de Blasio should not run for president — with just 18% supporting a bid. The feeling was as universal among New Yorkers as their contempt for bagels sliced like bread — every single party, gender, racial group, borough and age group polled agreed Hizzoner should not run.
Those polled didn’t just think the potential run was a bad idea — they thought it would be bad for New York City, by a margin of 47% to 32%, the poll found.
If I were to vote in a presidentialprimary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
