    Yeah, being distrustful of Platner is one thing, but a lot of the Platner discourse is being generated by doomer leftists who can’t wait to tear someone down. You can basically tell who has genuine concerns about Platners history and who gets off on complaining by whether or not they mention Andrea LaFlamme.

      la Flamme got some votes I noticed!! I’m happy to see anyone running tbh. I wish we had a ton of candidates to choose from to make the races competitive. The governors race was decent

        It probably would have been a wider field if it weren’t for Mills. Schumer pushed her into running, and since everyone knew the DNC would throw a lot of money behind his pick, no one wanted to get in after that. They couldn’t have expected the establishment candidate to flame out before the primary.
