On Sept 9th.

Could it be different in NYC than upstate? ( I'm in the city.)

It seems odd that people won't be able to vote before they go to work. I don't think I've ever heard of that.

I know what it is from the State. NYC often does its own thing.

..The national Democratic party will only hear "GOTTA MOVE RIGHT!!!!"

It's all they know, it's all they seem to want to do.

I've seen no evidence that the national party gets anything through their thick skulls.

Don't get me wrong, I hope she kicks major ass, and even if at the very least she embarrasses Cuomo then I'm absolutely all for it.
