Reply to comment by citytiger in Kathy Hochul sworn in as New York’s 1st woman elected governor by [deleted]

lol the most tired comeback possible.

you don’t have to be able to or want to do something to identify when someone it doing it badly.

like, I don’t want to defend Kathy Hochul. I wouldn’t be good at it. But I can definitively say you’re doing a bad job.

I can see why you lost. I figure if your constituents had problems you’d tell them to just run against you instead of doing your job and listening to voter concerns

I mean that’s what you’re saying across this entire thread pretty much. You understand not everyone is able to drop everything and run for office right?

I don't think that it is. The operative word is think. Because it's my opinion. But man. I wish to be wrong because we need some incorruptible heavy hitters fighting for us.

I have 0 background in this field. But I want to see change enough that Id throw my hat in the ring. I'd like to think people would vote for someone who just wants to do the right thing. I'd get assassinated day 1 lol

You don’t Need a background in politics to run for office. Why don’t you throw your hat in the ring? Local elections are this year.
