Disappointing but not surprising. Expecting something else would almost be the definition of insanity.
Nys election results suck

I just feel bad for us. Gun owners have to be one of the most maligned groups in all of NY at this point and it appears it will be like that for our lifetimes.
BECAUSE THE Conservative Party in NY STINKS! I left long ago..... Mike Long destroyed the party, He endorsed pro death candidates, I suggest people no longer vote the c line! In my county they endorsed bad candidates who did not even follow the c's plank in the past too...
I just drove home from work, did not see any heads on pikes or people along the road being crucified. I can still drive and go just about anyplace in the US. We are fine...... go out side and take a walk, breath! NY is still mostly a great state, if we got rid of our phones and the internet we would be doing great!

@Glock_USA isn't wrong. The fact that Fetterman 'won' in PA, who couldn't do a 1vs1 interview with media on his side but still earned the votes, and the fact that Zeldin was attacked on stage, had a shooting near his house (though un-connected to him as a candidate) and still couldn't win against Hochul... Not sure what to about NYC - it should have been a district similar to Washington DC. People bitch about cost of living there but then don't leave..
Someone said it on page 1 I think, it's all tribal - Democrats will kow tow the party line and vote for whomever their bosses tell them; Republicans are no different. Trump was starting to mix things up with MAGA candidates, but I personally think he went to far with the rhetoric. We all know he's right but there's a time and a place for it.

300K is pretty good. Last election is 2018 Cuomo won by 3-4 times that. Explain if Zeldin was so extreme and radical.

with whorchul and James in charge, it is literally time to become the criminal.
Criminals have more rights in NY than the law abiding.

True. Sad to say. Be a cold day in hell. NYS will have a Republican Governor.

Oh I know full well it's never going to happen, I wasn't suggesting that it was even remotely possibility.

I am not surprised by the results in NYS. NYS having a Republican Governor for example. Is not going to happen. I am also not surprised about the red wave not happening either. In the House yes, the Senate no.
There seems to be alot of negativity towards Trump. IMO mostly based on his name calling. And i agree. But that's Trump. And he's not going to change. DeSantis is a threat to him. DeSantis seems to be talked about more favorably than Trump. And also has the backing of major GOP donors. They don't want Trump to run. I know this may be off topic here. But come 2024. If, that could be a big if, Trump ends up being the Nominee. I say he will run. He will get my vote. His name calling, etc, etc, i put aside. What he stands for. Is no different than in 2016. That's what most important. We can't have another Demorat President in 2024!

Actually it seems to be more about Desantis actually winning and making good calls and Trump losing and making bad calls. It’s time for the old man to move on.

Easy ... she stole it.
Look at the the few blue counties.
That's where the voter fraud is.

Some day the left will find out that you do not want to force people to choose between "law abiding" and "gun owner". I think a lot of people will not make that choice the way they think they will.

Stop paying taxes ... if you can't vote them out, starve them out.
I don't give a shit if they could survive. Let that goddamn city fall into the ocean.
Actually, from what I've read the Shitty actually has more money than the rest of upstate, and helps keep us afloat.
But that is easily solved by charging NYC for the water they take from upstate for free now, and charging them for the waste they ship upstate now.
Then add in a few high $$ tolls on any roads leading from the Shitty to upstate and we're set for life.
etc. ad nauseum.
This is like many posts right off of Gab
You know why Trump was so popular? Because he could attract people from both sides of the aisle.
He was able to address the financial irresponsibility of our government, as well as the overbearing social oppression being parroted by both sides. He didn't come off like some third-rate crusader demanding everyone bow down to his specific version of sky fairy.
He honestly came off like someone who cared about his country, and the principles it stood for. ALL of those principles.
Desantis can't do that. Fewer Democrats will be willing to cross the aisle for him. Just as fewer Republicans would be willing to cross the aisle for candidates with mental issues, bedroom tactics, or private assassins.
This country needs a real centrist candidate. Not someone right out of a sci-fi socialism wet-dream or a 1700s theocracy.

Not a great benchmark since the citizens of Afghanistan can do this as well. If this is your litmus test I see why you’re so upbeat. Just make sure when you go those places you’re not armed because you’ll likely be a felon if you are.

I think the facts are yes NYC gets a a lot of money but they charge extra taxes for living there such as I think extra county and city taxes equate to 7% more. Also keep in mind a lot of money is spent there on the subways, bridges, and airports. Also a lot of our bills/laws that cost us lots of money come from there. If we didn’t have NYC pushing us left we maybe able to cut out a lot of costs and trim out spending greatly. So while that is fact for now facts can change based on circumstances.

This is already a choice I have settled with. I've made peace with the outcome. If I can't expect a favorable outcome with voting I will choose to live my life as I see fit. We've used up all of the peaceful boxes.
I do not carry. I do not need a gun to protect myself. There are always weapons to be used. How does a lion fight?
Red breast has the big picture.
For you sunshine patriots so quick to turn on the most wronged and misrepresented President in our time, shame on you.
You really think Ron D is the new guy to carry the torch against the swamp?, lol.
Be aware he is being built up by the very machine you , I and DT hate. McConnell , Ryan and the usual establishment swamp fucks. They will do anything to keep the orange wrench out of their machine , hell turtle held campaign funds back from several DT backed candidates. Yes , the establishment M cConnell machine actively sabotaged fellow R candidates.
Don’t be so quick to fall for the bait..RD needs to wait. His time is coming , but not yet.
Have no doubt, As soon as DT is out of the picture they will turn on RD in the same manner.
DJT deserves better from all of us.

That soon? Nice!
We would be just fine If NY didn't have NYC, we would be much more like states such as Ohio, Wisconsin.
Small to medium cities, suburbs, small towns, former rust belt with traditional blue collar dem influence and lots of agriculture and woodland. We would likely be a purple/red leaning state
Our taxes and politics and standards of living would be similar to states like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Sure and that's your opinion everyone has a right to do what they are comfortable with.
Me personally since I can't control what others will do, or who chooses to try to make me or my family their victims nor can I control which means they will use I want every advantage I can give myself and regularly carry.
No harm in having a different opinion so long as each other is respected and no one compels the other to change their actions and behavior because they personally don't like it.
At the end of the day life is choices and decisions and we should all have the freedom to choose for ourselves
