Default Re: Question for New Yorkers

Even when I grew up in New York in the 1960s, liberal Republicans did well there. John Lindsay was first elected mayor of New York as a Republican. And at that time, New York state had two somewhat liberal Republican senators (Jacob Javits and Kennth Keating), as well as a Republican governor (Nelson Rockefeller). All this despite overwhelming registation majorities for the Democrats. So voting for somewhat liberal Republicans is not something new for New Yorkers.
