The Burner Seattle Can Seattle Replicate Zohran Mamdani's Win? Feat. Stephen Paolini
The Burner gals are joined by Progressive People Power PAC (P3) consultant and all around cool guy Stephen Paolini to talk about Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani's blow out victory over the Democrat establishment in the New York City Mayoral primary and what lessons Seattle can learn from it!
Key take aways: The Democracy Voucher program (which we still like) prevents candidates from raising enough money to execute as sophisticated of a communications strategy as Mamdani did, NYC progressives did not give Cuomo the political cover that Seattle progressives are giving Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell, P3 most likely won't spend in the mayor's race this year, and Ashley called Harrell daddy...
Also: You should certainly still RSVP for The Burner's candidate forum Yes And The Vote on July 10 doors at 630pm
