Election 2013: Who Won the Major Races

    • Fellow NYC residents just returned us back to the good days of the 1970's and 1980's with Bill de Blasio. Just throw money at preschool education (which studies show does little for long-term educational abilities) and tax the rich. de Blasio kept showing and discussing his multiracial family all the time (isn't that playing the race card?) and how evil stop and frisk is to minorities. Luckily, I live in the well-to-do part of Manhattan so we will get by like our neighborhoods did in the 1970's and 1980's. However, the outer boroughs are the ones that will begin to suffer with deteriorating schools and increased crime.

    • Women who vote for progressives can and do make a difference.

    • One reason poorer neighborhoods get so much money is that the New York City banks are required to invest in their neighborhoods. Now that regulators understand that deposits come from a wide variety of places and usually not where bank has a branch, banks will have more freedom to invest in varying locations for their CRA exams. The CRA change combined with the new "progressive" mayor is going to adversely effect many NYC poorer neighborhoods. Just wait and see folks.

    • Well, Obamaville (Detroit), elected a white mayor Too little to late, just too many years of incompetent black socialists to repair..

    • Democrats s out spent by10-1, and funded the "independent" candidate, in VA just to barely squeak by one tea-patriot. And VA is a purple state, voted for Obama. Dems are relieved when just Republicans are elected like Christie since their hate for Tea-patriots is so intolerant.

    • Why is it that so many comments to the WSJ are signed anonymously/with patently fake names? 'The' Emma Goldstein was shot, to my recollection, coming up a hundred years since. Given the discussion into which our correspondent, the Emma Goldstein above, inserts herself, the reasonable assumption is that said Emma is personating the historically significant Emma in hope thereby of adding weight to an essentially empty comment. If said Emma actually mistakes herself for the contextually more appropriate Emma Goldman, the same criticism applies. The above Emma Goldstein may, indeed, be Emma Goldstein in her own right. If so, I suggest that she ought, in all modesty, to identify herself as, e.g., Emma Sharon Goldstein, 48 Biloxi Gardens, New York, NY etc.

    • 2014, interesting to see if democrats and the media can lie and propagandize a win against the people - or - another tea party shellacking like 3 yrs. ago (t-party dismantled democrats removing 60 from Congress & literally 100's of them across the States' offices.

    • As always, liberty, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights lost, state-ism won.

    • the people need to realize how costly the republican shutdown was and the millions of lives affected by this lunacy.many thousands lost jobs and it cost americans billions economically.there is nothing that republicans and there teaparty wingnuts will not do to destroy America,just to bring down a democrat president.shame on the gop,traitors all.
