P. S. Senator Chuck Schumer has endorsed India Walton since the date of this video.

[tirebiter]

1. The Democratic primary is for Democrats

Is she that indecisive?
or just clueless?

[Uncle Joe]

2. She won the Democratic Primary against a four time incumbent

so I imagine the good people of Buffalo must have thought that she was decisive enough to win the Democratic Primary.

[George II]

15. Anyone know why she wasn't a Democrat until she decided run as a Democrat in the Primary?

[Uncle Joe]

16. I don't know, perhaps ask the good people of Buffalo, apparently

they didn't care.

[regrestic]

3. Incumbent Mayor thought it was going to be easy re-election

She has been marching with the Catholic Health nurses on strike in Buffalo, day 23, also Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will meet with striking nurses and support India Walton for Mayor

[George II]

19. If the polls are even close to being accurate it is going to be easy. As of the last week of Sept...

Brown was leading 59% to 28%, more than 2-1.

4. She has so much power and solid confidence for being so young, impressive.

5. Kyrsten Sinema impressed a lot of Arizonans as a Green bisexual

[ShazamIam]

6. And?

[Uncle Joe]

7. and President John Tyler's grandsons were still alive as of March 8th 2018

How President Tyler, born in 1790, still has two living grandsons

Mar 8, 2018

so there's that.

[ShazamIam]

12. /s: Yes that must be what the bi refercence was about, twins. How did I miss it.

[ShazzieB]

8. Wtf are you implying?

[JohnSJ]

9. That is a LIE Schumer has endorsed Walton. Maybe Amy Goodwin has been getting her

information from Glenn Greenwald

No, I don’t care for Amy Goodwin, and what she did in 2016, pushing her divisioary “Democratic establishment” BS

[Uncle Joe]

10. That was my fault, I forgot to post the date of this video

which was produced before Schumer's endorsement.

I have since added it.

[JohnSJ]

21. Not your fault Joe. She made an assumption which she should not have done

[Magoo48]

11. So, who's a better, more hardworking investigative reporter than Amy Goodman?

[George II]

13. Where do you get this "snubbed by Democratic Party"? She was NOT "snubbed" by the NY Democratic....

....Party, she ran in the Democratic Primary and is on the ballot as a Democrat, isn't she? If anything, she did not get the endorsement of all members of the NY Democratic Party. That's not "snubbing". Are party members not permitted to endorse anyone they want, particularly since the candidates they endorse Democrats?

I think we should be careful how we characterize Democrats' endorsements or opinions.

So what do you say about Justice Democrats "snubbing" the 4-term incumbent Democratic Mayor of Buffalo, who is also on the ballot?

PS - Ms. Walton wasn't a Democrat until she decided to run in the Democratic Primary. Sounds familiar

PPS - Senator Chuck Schumer didn't endorse Ms. Walton until after the Democratic Primary, he did not endorse her in the Democratic Primary. He only endorsed her two days ago.

[Uncle Joe]

14. Apparently you didn't you watch the video. n/t

[George II]

17. No I didn't, I know enough about the candidates and the campaign and don't need....

....a "Democracy Now!" video to put their biased spin on things.

[Uncle Joe]

18. Have a good day George. n/t
