Another missed storyline from last night - @newkingsdems say they won a majority of district leader seats in Brooklyn. The whole goal of their campaign was to get a majority of the party’s county committee and vote out @AMBichotte as chair

Last night's results in #NY12 are inversely related to the number of social media followers the candidates have.

How hard did New Yorkers party after the @nyknicks championship win? Some @MTA stats: there were 329,000 rides early Sunday morning (midnight to 5am) after the victory -- surpassing the average New Year's Eve crowds, which were around 268,000.

John Mangin has worked for years to build a more affordable city for New Yorkers. I'm thrilled that @NYCMayor has nominated him to chair the BSA - I know he will bring his deep knowledge of the city’s land use policy and commitment to public service to the role if confirmed.

@megataros New York City is considered a biodiversity hotspot and hosts a lot of rare and endangered species. it's also world-class birdwatching destination — people just *think* it lacks nature because they don't know where to go :) https://t.co/WKlojyPXUJ

Company Summit Properties says it'll forgive rent arrears for tenants in the 5,100+ NYC apartments it purchased in a high-profile bankruptcy sale earlier this year

It could be a lot of $

I counted more than 2,500 nonpayment cases filed by previous owner Pinnacle since Apr 2021

.@NYCMayor nominated John Mangin as the next Board of Standards and Appeals chair. The board has a bigger role in housing, thanks to the charter revisions, and Mangin played a part in bringing about said charter revisions:

The value of charisma in politics is that when you're charismatic, normal things that every mayor does become "Mayor delivers! What an accomplishment! Amazing job!" through your network of boosters.

Not even hating, every politician wishes they were this magnetic.
