NEW: The Commie Corridor didn't happen overnight. Neither will its sequel. No Congressional District in America has more renters than NY-13. Zohran won it by 20 points last June. Adriano Espaillat has outlasted everyone. But his district is changing: open.substack.com/pub/michaellan…

For years, New York Democrats had pressed for taxpayer-financed campaigns, arguing that it would make politics more competitive and fairer. Now, the top of the Democratic ticket isn't taking matching funds, the likely GOP nominee was denied. x.com/mahoneyw/statu…
Bill Mahoney@mahoneyw

Democrats have officially voted to kick Blakeman out of the public financing program, denying his campaign between $3.5-7 million. Five others were also booted. This is the only gubernatorial candidate still eligible for a publicly funded campaign: manhattanda.org/d-a-bragg-anno…

NEW The Wealthy House Candidate w/a History of Bawdy Facebook Posts Peter Chatzky speculated about how much Melania Trump would charge him for sex. Joked about sleeping with an intern. And boasted—evidently facetiously—about paying to watch him masturbate nytimes.com/2026/03/19/nyr…

DC 37 endorsed Alex Bores and Antonio Reynoso for open House seats. The latter means the city’s largest public sector union is breaking with Mayor Mamdani, who’s been trying to rally support for Reynoso’s opponent, Claire Valdez: cityandstateny.com/politics/2026/…
