[multivita-man]

And the real exodus from NYC begins. Major financial firms are getting the hell out of Dodge.

Exclusive | Here’s where big Wall Street firms are moving as NYC looks poised to elect a socialist mayor

And just where are they gonna go—Las Vegas? lol

Congratulations to New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

You idiot's hoping that Mamdani is going to turn NY into a "socialist utopia" should know that his religion will overrule Marxism every time.

Likely Texas and Florida.

Likely Texas and Florida.

To be honest, I doubt they move because I doubt Mamdani actually achieves half the shit he's pledging to do. Not for a lack of effort, but because he'll have to fight the rest of city hall, his own state government, and the federal government. He won't win. He'll try, but he'll lose.

We're all out of room here in Pa., just in case any NYers are wondering.

New Yorkers are moving to Florida in large numbers, driven by lower taxes (no state income tax), warmer weather, more affordable housing, and a desire for a different lifestyle, with many relocating to cities like Tampa, Orlando, Miami, and West Palm Beach for better job markets and a relaxed environment, continuing a trend accelerated by the pandemic and current economic/political factors. This migration involves various demographics, from retirees to remote workers, significantly impacting Florida's population and economy, with New York consistently being the top origin state for Florida newcomers.

Congratulations to New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

/----/ The City Hall subway station opened in 1909 and closed not long after because the curve was too great for newer subway cars. It's in pristine condition and can be seen on a tour.

/---/ My buddy moved from Buffalo NY to West Palm Beach Florida years ago for health reasons. He could no longer tolerate the bitter cold Buffalo winters. All you stated is true except the cost of insurance for homes and cars is mind-bending. And the summer heat is brutal.

Wingnuts are terrified that Mamdani is going to be successful.

Little chance of that.

Zohran Mamdani, the left-leaning populist who deployed a mix of charm, social media savvy and an unyielding focus on affordability to catapult him to political stardom, was officially sworn in as mayor of New York City early Thursday, just after the New Year’s Eve ball dropped in Times Square.

The ceremony, held underground at an abandoned showpiece of a subway station by City Hall, caps Mr. Mamdani’s yearlong rise from obscure state lawmaker to international figure carrying the hopes of New Yorkers and Americans across the country who were enthralled by his journey to becoming the city’s first Muslim and first South Asian mayor.

Just after the last seconds of 2025 ticked away, Mr. Mamdani, 34, was sworn in by Letitia James, the state attorney general, as a smattering of family, friends and reporters looked on.

No food and no toilets for the peasants in the cold outside. True socialism.

This is going to be good for New York City (and great for Republicans ).

Wingnuts are terrified that Mamdani is going to be successful.

. . and the rest of us know he can do nothing but fail at this point.

 

[Billiejeens]

Approx. numbers -

People in New York City 8.4 million

Registered voters 5.1million.

People who voted for Mandani 1,114184

Over 7 million did not want Mandani

He has no mandate, he has no majority, he has no experience.
Governing will be very difficult.

He will be successful at doing what he promised: to collapse New York City and send everyone, except himself and his cronies, into abject poverty. That's what he said he would do, and I believe him.

Only fringe wingnuts voted for Mandani

 

[MisterBeale]

Only fringe wingnuts voted for Mandani

If that were true, he would not have won.

. . . I don't consider folks with little knowledge of economics, and an unrealistic view of human nature and of what government actually can and does accomplish with its power. . . to be wing nuts.

They are just w/o hope and utterly ignorant.

Ken Griffin moved himself and basically his entire company, Citadel, to Miami, to
escape the idiocy (and crime) of Chicago. Billions in annual revenue and payroll
no longer subject to confiscation by Chicago and Illinois Dems.
