DeBlasio’s school thing hurt. Overall this Harvard case in front of the Supreme Court right now is a big deal and democrats aren’t seeing the Asian prospective. There is also the recent attacks on Asians that got blamed on bale reform

Interesting... one would think that bale reform would be more of a hot-button among hay and alfalfa farmers than asian new yorkers... the more you know.

Downtown Flushing, yes, but colloquially people often refer to a much larger area surrounding it as Flushing as well with sub-neighborhoods like Murray Hill and Linden Hill. Just like how "Jamaica" is used to denote large swaths of Southeast Queens, "Flushing" is used to denote much of Northeast Queens, probably both a long-standing remnant of time when they were each one of the five Townships of Queens County.
