Scott is the “Grown-Up” Candidate New Yorkers Are Looking For. Tonight Proved It.

Following tonight’s debate, Alyssa Cass, a spokesperson for Scott Stringer, released the following statement:

“Tonight made one thing crystal clear: the other candidates in this race are either peddling fantasies or running the same, cynical playbook that got us into this mess in the first place,” said Stringer spokesperson Alyssa Cass. “Scott wasn’t up there yelling for attention and he wasn’t trying to advance some out-of-touch, unrealistic agenda. He offered real plans and spoke with the heart, clarity and the conviction that comes with a lifetime of fighting for the people who make this city run."

“New Yorkers are fed up with the extremes. They’re tired of all the bluster and pandering. They know there is no instant fix and they don’t want a 10-year plan. This is ‘grown-up time’ and Scott showed voters what that means.”

“New York need a mayor who understands how the city works and is ready to wield this city’s power on behalf of its people. Scott is the candidate who’s ready to clean up City Hall, deliver on his plans and lead this city back to where it belongs.”
