It kind of makes me sick to my stomach that things are where they are with the mayoral race but I think you’ve described things accurately. And for the record, the city that Cuomo describes, using language right off the front page of the NY Post, doesn’t track with the city I live in. The Sheepmeadow was packed yesterday, as was the Highline. I’m going to the theater twice this week and I just signed up for an all-day reading of Mrs. Dalloway at the 92nd St. Y on June 14th! My daughter is constantly on the L train to Brooklyn. W. 14th St. on Saturday morning is like a big anti-Musk party. There are some amazing exhibits at the museums. So many new restaurants. Sure there is room for improvement, particularly with respect to the subways and mentally ill people without housing or treatment and my daughter was hit by an E bike going the wrong way on a one-way street (she’s fine) but I hate politicians who make it seem worse (a lot worse) than it is.

The Times is no longer endorsing in local races so their nod won't be there to help Lander or Stringer.
