100 PERCENT - How Did We Do With Our Election Day Predictions?

100 Percent Election Day Recap

  So how did we do with our Election Day predictions? 

  First, we said there would be no surprises in the Bronx on Election Day, and there were none. All incumbent elected officials won, and almost all with percentages of over 90 percent. 

 There were no upsets in either the 14th Congressional or 34th State Senate districts, and all three ballot proposals passed by large margins. 

 The problem with the ballot scanning machines has been around since they first came into use. 

  Once newly elected New York State Attorney General Letitia James vacates the position of Public Advocate for New York City City Council Speaker Corey Johnson will also become the acting Public Advocate until an election is held to fill the vacant position. We would not be surprised to see Speaker Johnson run for the position of Public Advocate and win. That would then set off a flurry of deal making as to just who would then become the next City Council Speaker. 

  We can't wait for 2019.
