Public Advocate Race
Tomorrow NYC votes in a primary election that will determine, in many ways, the political landscape for NYC for the next 4 years. Sadly, it will be a low voter turnout primary which means it is desperately hard to predict.
Public Advocate is one of the positions up for grabs tomorrow. It is one race that could go into a runoff if the few polls I have seen are any indication.
There are four candidates running: civil rights attorney and former head of the New York Civil Liberties Union Norman Siegel, former Public Advocate and mayoral candidate Mark Green, and City Council candidates Eric Gioia and Bill de Blasio.
