Should Michael Bloomberg be re-elected as Mayor of New York City?

Ok. All you folks from NYC, lower New York State, New Jersey, and Connecticut, know about our Mayor Bloomberg.

Should he be re-elected?

its up.

i announced to my office on Monday that I had to vote for Bloomberg, because I like all his big projects and Thompson was just too unknown. but then on Tuesday, it was announced that he wanted to ban smoking in all NYC Parks.

and then I flipped. that was the last straw. we cannot let this man believe that he can do whatever he wants, and not be accountable.

not only did he over-turn term limits, but he threatened to financially support the election opposition of ANYONE who voted against dropping term limits, in the City Council.

8 is enough Mike. this is the USA, not the USSR.

it doesn't matter if he should . He will. About 10% of the voters turned out for a primary. I think he isn't in any primaries because he is an independent

He should have stood by his previous stand in favor of term limits. But he thinks he is indispensable to NYC. In spite of his change in posistion I think I would vote for him if I lived in NYC
