American-born New Yorkers said that they would vote for Andrew Cuomo (October 18 poll). Foreign-born New Yorkers said that that they would vote for Mayor Mamdani (charts below). What do we call the system of government that brought Mayor Mamdani to power? It doesn’t seem like “democracy” since many of the voters, like the new mayor himself, are only recently arrived. How about “replacementocracy” for when an election result is determined by the votes of immigrants? The neologism is literally “rule by replacements”.
The actual election results seem to be consistent with the above poll. Screen shot from last night:
Separately, it was interesting to watch Florida Realtor of the Year 2020 and 2021 compete against Florida Realtor of the Year 2026.
The results in Williamsburg show that the “Hate Americans” are even more polarized than the “Not Americans.”
Although I’m fascinated by the Upper East Side vs Upper West Side split. I guess Cuomo and Mamdani perfectly encapsulate the personality difference between the hedgie kids and the theater kids.
New York voters are very diverse, they’ve got communists AND socialists?
Phil, thanks so much for highlighting the new and improving America, where we are working tirelessly to dismantle all the evils perpetrated on the world by Western Civilization. Is this a recent epiphany? Allahu Akbar!
Found on Twitter: “Young women are the story of tonight, per NBC exit polls:
– 81% for Mamdani in NYC
– 80% for Sherrill in NJ
– 78% for Spanberger in VA”
