Then why did they just re-elect him to a third term?
RE: Then why did they just re-elect him to a third term?
Bloomberg might be many things people of NYC do not want, but let’s fact it — on the MOST IMPORTANT job a Mayor must do -— PEACE AND ORDER - HE IS VERY SUCCESSFUL.
New York City is one of the safest big cities in the WORLD. He continued Rudy Giuliani’s tough on crime policies and made it even better. Crime has continued to drop in the Big Apple and we just recently had the lowest crime rate since the 1960’s.
I don’t care for the rest of his policies but PEACE AND ORDER are high on my list.
I believe that is foremost in the minds of most NYC voters too.
He won in 2005 by a 19 point margin.
He won in 2009 by a 4 point margin.
His base of support has dramatically eroded.
I am speaking of the smart NYC residents.
