According to the Murdoch owned right-wingnut rag (WSJ) 69% in favour leaves 31% neutral or not in favour - 31% is NOT just under half, it’s just under a third. Lying shitsacks.Just to be clear. That image isnt saying that WSJ reported that stat. That image says WSJ is saying new yorkers dont like him any longer, but the pole data (with no source stated) shows 69% favorable.
“New Yorkers”?
As in the entire State? A state that has large red rural areas? Polling people that aren’t even Mamdani’s constituents?
Some of the poll info is from the New York Post, an unapologetically right wing rag that has no problems trash talking the left.
Maybe they dont like him because theyre jealous they dont get all of those sweet, sweet, DSA dollars and it exposes the incompetency of their own governments
Okay, funny timing in my All thread
Their mandate is merely resounding but not thunderously overwhelming yet? Great reporting.
Well, no one has been slammed or blasted so there is still hope.
Reminds me of the old joke about second place, because of all the losers, you’re first.
It’s New York, I am sure a non trivial amount of people don’t care about him at all. And then what’s left over are his actual supporters.
Ofcourse, the headline is obviously using the statistics in bad faith in an attempt to spin this in their favor.
Or another words, it is propaganda. Which I think is effective in every language although my sample size is limited.
The actual implication of the headline is that over half do support him. Non-support includes those apathetic and against. Saying “almost less than half lack support” means “more than half do support.” The other less than 50% is shared by “no opinion” and “against.”
You’re right, the way it is worded, anyone who doesn’t support him would include the people that are indifferent or don’t care.
Ok I’ll admit I didn’t get that at first what the fuck dude how’d you look at the stats and get that positioning from over 50% support
Not what that means
A Siena University poll showed that 30% of New York voters like the DSA and 47% don’t have a favorable view of them.
Edit: Worth noting, though, this is NY State likely voters. NYC is 49% support. 32% not support.

Oh ok, in context that makes sense but I hope you can understand my confusion.
Thanks for the information
The headline was very much written to make DSA seem unpopular.
how
Deliberately.
That’s less than more than 50%.
Source?
“Two days before the day after tomorrow!”
Nah, the US is just that good at propaganda that hurts us.
Does someone read this and go “oh no %50 don’t support Madani so I should quench all my positive feelings for him.” Maybe they do and that is why they produced this excrement piece of a headline.
People just want to see their bias confirmed. They read this and think ‘see, i knew he wasn’t as popular as they say’.
