First part absolutely true. Second part problematic, the Republican enclaves of NYC are not the underprivileged areas and Republican-leaning voters can’t participate in the Democratic primary unless they register as Democrat in advance. Underprivileged areas voted Cuomo because they’re conditioned to vote for candidates they see as “safe” - A lot of them are black boomers who’ve seen some shit and feel like they owe their safety to the Democratic establishment - And because of low information.
