Hang in there, helps on the way...if you elect Andrew Yang. Seriously

The people of NYC has hope! Hope is on the horizon.

[SimpleIdeaz]

I'm a republican and he has my vote. Not a fan of his social views but like his economics Smart guy just hope he's not blacklisted again

[midnitekingdrama]

I’m conservative and I love Andrew yang and Tulsi cuz they listened from both sides of supporters and tried to solve the problems but lately I’m not really down with Andrew but still he is one of the most honest people out there in political world!

[amarius]

omg he threw a Knicks diss in there lmao! Thats bold...this is great news for NYC.

[SuperChillin]

Hurray Yang Gang! This is very exciting, I fully believe what Andrew Yang does with New York if he wins could be a microcosm for what he could do for our country. I'll be watching.

[thatguy_]

New York will probably blow their chance for prosperity and vote an establishment lackey. Look at the last mayor they voted for, lol. Still though, love Yang for earnestly trying to help his dying city.

[ungrateful-]

If I lived in NYC, I’d vote for him, and I’M A REPUBLICAN!

[ilovebooksalot]

He is the one for the job!!! Happy birthday, Andrew Yang! And thank you to The Hill for your coverage!

[danieltolson]

Mayor of New York after Bill De Blasio, that’ll be about as hard as being President after Donald Trump. But you got this Yang!

[bonlouis]

DeBlasio should resign now and let Yang takeover

[MyNameIsntRyan]

Yang is the best. Love him. He better win this shit!

[estoniaisunderrated]

I wish I lived in NY so I could vote for him, if only he has made it through the primary’s we coulda had this man share the yang gang with the whole country

[lalaC]

Look at Yang’s policies and every one of them makes sense. It’s not business as usual, but real solutions! Embrace him NewYorkers

[jingcc]

So jealous of New York! Yang Gang! He’s going to make it happen! He’ll turn NYC around!

[paybrookman]

I’m a republican and I would vote for him. It’s time for a change. People need a voice and I think he is it .

[sorijin]

Wu-Tang Clan needs to get with this man! C.R.E.A.M.
