I'm only more assured I made the right choice voting for Saikat

I voted for Saikat too, the day after I received my ballot in the mail.

Also no regrets.

Pelosi's endorsement seems very late.

Far too late to shift the race in any meaningful way, except maybe to pull Chan ahead of Saikat?

But why endorse now, if you believe the polls that say Weiner is far ahead?

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

That's a good point. This is a very late endorsement on Pelosi's part.

I feel it's more about shutting down any progressive threats. We already know Weiner is controlled by the establishment. Chan seems controllable as well, when Saikat is going to behave as a populist and announce progressive policies that will excite voters.
