Let's come up with some fun NY facts in advance of the primary.

[geek tragedy]

1. Bernie left New York--for good- in 1968. The next year the Mets won the World Series. Coincidence?

2. Bernie Sanders left New York one year before Jay-Z was born and 13 years before Alicia Keys was born.

3. Taxes on Wall Street are 18-20% of New York's state budget.

4. No one who lives in Brooklyn has an accent like Bernie Sanders. No one. Except Marty Markowitz.

5. New York's Governor and New York City's mayor are supporting Clinton.

6. Every single member of New York's Democratic Congressional delegation--black, white, male, female, Senate, House, has endorsed Clinton.

7. Hillary Clinton has lived in New York 15 years longer than Bernie Sanders has been a Democrat.

I'm still waiting for Bernie's list of names of New York Wall Streeters Bernie will prosecute and put in jail. Let us know, Bernie.

7. In the 2012 presidential election....

NYS gave President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden 63.35% of its vote, one of only six states where the ticket improved their performance over 2008, when they took 62.88% of the vote.

It was the the second largest Democratic vote share in the state in history.

In 1964, 68.56% of NYS's vote went to LBJ/HH, winning every county in the most dominating outcome in a presidential election in the state in history.

New York County aka Manhattan Island (primarily) has voted for the Democrat in every presidential election at least as far back as Kennedy-Nixon in 1960. (I believe that it actually goes back further than that, to before FDR, but did not have the time to go looking for the data.)
