Paul Vallone. Never heard of him, is he a big cheese in NYC politics?

I’m guessing, and I live on Staten island, that he is a centrist at worst. Needs to run on Democratic ticket to win.

still a few moderate areas left in Queens and I don’t think a paisano would win in a black and Puerto Rican neighborhood

No he’s not a big keys but his district is the same district in Queens where Trump was from. So basically he represents the range of working class to wealthy mostly white areas. He’s likely a Democrat the same way Trump was a Democrat, because in New York City basically have to be in order to be in any powerful social network that matters.

Bad autocorrect - cheese, not keys

His dad was (by NYC standards) a right wing Democrat and City Council Speaker, until turfed by term limits.

#3. As I recall, Vallone is a “player” in NYC politics, esp. if he has a lot of the Italian-American vote, so this is significant.

Learning by first hand experiences teach a lesson that the Leftists cannot deny, but they will smear the messenger.
