It’s time for City & State’s annual budget poll, which – much like the actual state budget – is a bit late this year. The budget is now nine days overdue, and there’s no little reason to expect it will be finalized any time soon. Gov. Kathy Hochul has promised to keep lawmakers in Albany for as long as it takes to ensure her top policy priorities – including changes to the discovery law and a mask ban – make it into the budget.

I want to take a step out and look at it nationally for a moment. Let’s say that you were someone who wanted to adopt Democratic policies nationwide. The Democratic message of, hey, we’re going to legislate some of these changes’ would require the Democrats to hold the U.S. Senate, which, by the numbers and by the map, they are very unlikely to do for any foreseeable number of years. Right now, they just lost seats in Ohio and West Virginia, which they will never see again.

Six of socialist Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani’s comrades – state Sens. Jabari Brisport and Kristen Gonzalez and Assembly Members Claire Valdez, Phara Souffrant Forrest, Marcela Mitaynes and Sarahana Shrestha – formally endorsed his mayoral campaign on Thursday morning. Like Mamdani, all six of the new endorsers are affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America and part of DSA’s nine-member “State Socialists in Office” bloc in Albany.

More than 250 people have already entered @CityAndStateNY's annual budget poll. Have you? Just guess when the NY state budget – which was due April 1 but is late – will be finally passed. If your guess is closest, you'll win a beach towel! https://t.co/NtQQPvqmD3
