84 Deaths In NY Today

Not to be celebrated for obvious reasons but that number is way down from where we started. we have come so far. NY has done what was asked and our numbers are showing how effective that can be. Thank You Gov. Cuomo, Mayor DB and my fellow NYers.

as long as we don't get sloppy and still follow the guidelines we should be all right. I don't think it will go back to what it was.

NYC alone has a population 14 times that amount but go ahead stomp all over this thread and the monumental effort NYers have put in.

I am proud of my state. Last month we were over 800 deaths a day, now we are below 100. The majority of other states are going the opposite direction.

Cuomo has given a morning update every day for weeks now. No days off for him. He has been honest, straight forward and the people of New York responded. We are listening to him and it is working.

She shut it down early. 147 deaths in the whole state so far.

She was also on Chris Hayes the other night and spoke about our Vote By Mail system - how well it works, and especially that it can't be hacked!
