Giuliani, as mayor, wasn't remotely hard-right, LOL. He had a center-left agenda. He was at least as left as Mario Cuomo, who is more left than Andrew Cuomo.

The Giuliani of 2021 has no relationship whatsoever to the Giuliani of 1994. Giuliani won Manhattan, one of the most liberal counties in the U.S. And this was running against an extremely popular Manhattan Borough President. He was always a jerk, and probably always racist, but policy-wise he generally leaned progressive. Built a ton of subsidized housing, increased taxes on the wealthy and did a lot of "leftie" stuff.

I'm also interested in seeing how Andrew Yang would do as mayor. I won't vote for him as my first choice, but probably my third choice right now (we're doing ranked-choice voting for first time). He's probably the odds-on favorite right now.

I'll vote Ray McGuire first, then Sean Donovan, then Yang, and probably leave the rest blank. Those are the only three candidates that aren't horrible.
