The state’s health exchange has more than 257,000 New Yorkers who have completed applications and about 76,000 who have enrolled, the state Health Department said.

That's up from about 48,000 enrollees and 200,000 finished application as of mid-November.

New York's program, called NY State of Health, has outperformed the national website and has represented about half of the overall total nationally of participants through the federal Affordable Care Act.

New York has about 2.7 million uninsured people.

While the MSM happily plays right wing talking points, on the ground, the pace of enrollments has continued to accelerate, particularly at State run healthcare exchanges.

1. and the msm is still doing it. There should be no ambiguity that there is no such thing as where

they are coming from. Their one sided coverage says everything

2. Yep. Corporate media at its best in everything trashing Obamacare,

including but not limited to total negative stories . . and show casing GOPers . . to tell us about ACA (-).

Read that Pres. O responded to a letter from a Texas teacher who hates Obamacare. Pres. O acknowledges that ACA was not a smart political move but an essential one for the health of the country. Of course the teacher still hates it (tea bagger) and is auctioning off the letter for $24,000 per Wapo. Now Wapo is not a supportive newspaper re: anything pertaining to Pres. O and the Dems.

I have to read the progressive sites in order to keep up with positive news, and that's a gawd damn shame.

3. Is there a total of applications and enrollees yet across the US?

Is there a website with counters and totals?

4. ie the only places with the ACA is doing poorly is

with red Governors who gave up State control to the Feds. That makes no sense. I thought Red Gov's were pro state?? Basically if we have smart people in those states and the figure out their own Governors screwed them. bye bye Gov's..
