NY’ers and Others : Don’t Forget to Vote Today

It’s election day in New York City (and in many other places I’m sure). If you can vote, please do with everything I said before last year’s presidential election holding true.

The biggest race here in my hood is for mayor, with wannabe third term Bloomberg and Bill Thompson as the top contenders and making sure they pander, er campaign to the Latino community. I have seen many more Bloomberg operatives in my immigrant ‘hood and much more of his trash lining the streets of my hood but he does have what, a few billion in his wallet? My mom’s phone has been ringing off the hook though with Spanish language robo-calls featuring former Bronx borough pres Fernando Ferrer telling us to support Thompson.

I won’t tell you who to vote for pero if going by any of the Spanish language campaign ads is any indication, I may have to vote for the Rent is Too Damn High Party (ok, ok I do like the Basta Bloomberg ad).
