In multiple upcoming congressional primaries in progressive New York districts, the New York Times endorsed all white guys this past weekend -- 2 of which are more conservative than their districts and their opponents.
The reaction online was immediate and negative, with comments such as "These NY-10 & NY-17 endorsements are an embarrassing revelation that the New York Times is out of touch with the electorate..." and "The New York Times and its editorial board has lost all credibility in their endorsements and their coverage of New York politics."
With the primary less than 1 week away -- can you make Get Out The Vote calls for the progressive the Times should have endorsed in New York's 17th Congressional District -- Alessandra Biaggi?
YES! Sign me up. I will help make Get Out The Vote calls from my home!
New York’s 10th Congressional District is one of the most progressive in America. It is multicultural and includes Chinatown, Greenwich Village, and a sizable Latino community. Rockstar progressive state assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou and Mondaire Jones (the current progressive Congressman who jumped from another district) are both running.
But the NY Times endorsed Dan Goldman -- a self-funding TV pundit with no known ideology whom they "forgot" to mention is a personal family friend of the publisher.
In New York’s 17th Congressional District, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Chair Sean Patrick Maloney jumped into this district from his current district because it is so Democratic.
Maloney is a corporate Democrat who actively bragged about watering down Obamacare multiple times. He’s spent more than $43 million from Democratic donors like you helping election-denying insurrectionists win Republican nominations…because rooting for Trump to win the nomination worked great in 2016.
He’s being challenged by progressive state senator Alessandra Biaggi, who rose to fame like AOC by knocking off a crusty corporate Democratic powerbroker. But the NY Times endorsed…the corporate Democrat.
Can you help Alessandra Biaggi Get Out The Vote by calling voters in New York's 17th Congressional District?
Yes! Sign me up to make Get Out The Vote calls from my home.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
