Great. So, it's your state's fault now when all of our job creators move to Canada.

Cuomo won 54:40, and yes on the three proposals. I, for one, was absolutely shocked by these revelations this morning. And the Empire State Building was lit red last night, because apparently people walking around at midnight really needed to know who has control of the senate.
Cuomo can't be happy with that result, he won big but he wanted to win legendary.

It probably works de facto that way for many judges
Yes. Fortunately, we have some very good Family Court judges here who have seen enough **** to view things with a very jaundiced eye. They usually get it right.

Are you trusting the Republicans to do the "right thing" in the eyes of the majority of voters? Remember, they only have the numbers (of elected officials) they do because they are Jedi Masters at redistricting.
Don't be modest; Democrats are pretty great at drawing up some
ridiculous congressional districts, too.
Oh, that
is impressive. We have
some like that here in New York, but not quite that creative. And "modest" probably isn't the best description since I despise them all (Politician - noun, from Latin, meaning "morally corrupt and intellectually bankrupt"). But don't mistake my contempt for a lack of respect. The balls that it takes to do stuff like this just commands respect.
