Reply to comment by casanovaelrey in New Yorkers overwhelmingly support bail changes ahead of state budget deadline: Poll by Grass8989

“with a breakdown of 76% of Democrats, 71% of independents and 69% of Republicans, according to the Siena College poll.”

Conservatives?

> And before ANYONE says "well *insert number" people support it", I don't care. Not everyone knows the law and most people operate based on what they think the law is. But I digress.

DEFINITELY must have missed this part in your quest to be right.

Also the "Tough on crime" and "War on Drugs" legacy conservative policies and a cornerstone of ANYTHING they talk about. So I stand by my comments.

You can't just hand-wave away the will of a significant majority of all voters because they don't have NYU law degrees. Luckily it doesn't matter if you don't care what the majority of residents of this state want, we still live in a democracy and the majority rules.
