We had a strong early voting push- good
Seniors are most likely to stay home - good for us
Queens less likely to be paralyzed than Nassau- good
Nassau dot likely to plow gop streets first - bad
Ny3 gop very organized - bad
Media still supporting gop - bad
Nassau far more important than queens - bad

Let's hope people having the day off and being pissed - good
