It is amazing how NYC has changed since 1941. In 1941, Staten Island/Queens voted for Democrats, while Manhattan, Bronx, and Brooklyn voted for Republicans. Today, it is the opposite. Staten Island votes for Republicans with parts of Queens. Bronx and Brooklyn are strong Democratic strongholds. Manhattan used to competitive due to its wealth, but votes for Democrats now.
No. Maybe in mayoral or local election or in that certain election they voted Republican because local Republicans will adopt New York City values (like he said la guardia was a democratic socialist) but in presidential elections it was heavily democratic. The Republicans have only won manhattan three times in history. 1896, 1920, and 1924. Brooklyn and Bronx are similar
The city went downhill when Deblasio was elected. Both him and Adams have been a disaster. They make the Bloomberg years look like the city’s glory days. As much as I don’t like Bloomberg personally, looking back at his mayorship I have to give him credit for continuing to keep the city safe and growing for the 12 years following 9/11.

Interesting that Erica Adams have lowest approval rating since the 1990's. They will probably elect a Democrat again. It's like Argentina before Milei. They never learned. Corruption is part of it of course but the narrow mindedness and intolerance when it comes to alternative views is outstanding imo.
In 2018 New York was at a 10 year low for homicide rate. Why arent you praising him for that? Oh wait I know its cause your a maga sheep and you probably buy your trump bible and believes what he says about "Dumbocrat cities" without question.

I must ask, why was the first transition the NYC z flag colors, but the rest where white, red, and green? I thought the first transition was quite clever!

The parties have changed a lot as well, though. Despite being Republican, La Guardia was a democratic socialist.
Eh queens is split between Republicans and Democrats

the fact that twice as many people voted in the mayoral election of 1941 than 2021, despite the fact that the population only grew, is insane
NYC elections in a nutshell
Italian/German/Irish name vs Italian/German/Irish name
Jewish names too
@@basedgaming1826 that kind of falls under the German category. Most Jewish names are Germanic in origin
@@Prauwlet213I don't trust Italians

I always thought Bloomberg would've been a good-ish president the last few years. Better than Biden and Kamala at least
Has there been a more dramatic fall from grace as Rudy? From America's mayor to COVID farts.
You're the problem.
@@yukihirasouma4691lol good joke

its Curtis Swilia's security group he founded.
@@TreeBarkSide Ah that makes sense, makes him look like a communist cuban dictator lol
@@TreeBarkSidethe security group that beat up "immigrants" just to then turn out to be Americans that made one joke. I know who to NEVER hire.
The Dem primaries in the later years are more interesting than the generals tbh
It's incredible how New York City has never elected a Female Mayor when they call their city a Liberal bastion.
Double Stantards? Happened a lot with Liberals in this specific topic, I mean for example in the UK, the only 2 females who get to be PM were Conservative, Scottish National Partt elected also a woman as their leader, somehow Labour still doesn't.
Liberalism back then was improving ordinary and working people’s lives. The younger generation sees it now as just being for obscure social issues
They tend to be the opposite on what they proclaimed
Giuliani and Bloomberg brought forth safety and prosperity.
You forgot to add "if you're white."
@@duckmercy11exactly, black voters despised them.
What happened to Rudi Giuliani between 1993 and 1997?
I must ask, why was the first transition the NYC z flag colors, but the rest where white, red, and green? I thought the first transition was quite clever!
This was my mistake. I forgot to click Apply All, so only the first scene had the color I wanted to use.

@@DGAMINGEN Reading Buckley 's memoir - I believe that he viewed his GOP opponent as too liberal
What an absolute disaster deblasio was.
Adams is even worse
Sliwa should have won
How did he win 70%? That's huge. Apparently the people wanted him lol
@@dudeguy4818 oh please lol 😂
Giuliani was the GOAT
The Dinkins- Giuliani races were always close I see 🤔
I did not think he was going to be a Republican 5.11
Pls put the jingles

@@dannyturkian9083 yh i k
Didn't expect to see a republican in the 21th century
Rudy Giuliani was the GOAT. I wish I could be the mayor of NYC so I could clean up the mess that the democrats made since then.
Curtis Sliwa could have done it. Should have elected him instead of that clown Eric Adams
