Now she wants to fight crime! New York Gov. Hochul and NYC Mayor Adams said Saturday they’d be flooding the New York City subway system with more cops and installing surveillance cameras in a joint effort to combat surging crime.
The initiative, which conveniently comes just over two weeks before Election Day, at Grand Central Terminal includes having the MTA and NYPD work together by adding 1,200 extra overtime shifts daily on the subway. This will equate to 10,000 extra overtime patrols every day.
Where’s the urgency coming from? Not to actually protect citizens, but to buy their votes with pipe dream that they will be safe again on the democrat’s watch.
This is just a day after polls reveal Republican candidate Zeldin is beating Hochul handily among self-described independents (47%-38%) and voters not registered with either party (59%-28%) – a key block of swing voters he needs to offset the enormous Democratic Party enrollment advantage.
