Democratic voters in Midtown Manhattan made a notable choice in the recent NYC primary, selecting state Assemblyman Micah Lasher as their preferred candidate. Lasher's stance on key issues has drawn attention, particularly his support for continuing arms sales to Israel. This position has sparked debate, with some critics accusing Israel of committing genocide, a claim Lasher does not endorse. The endorsement of Lasher by National Review's Jim Geraghty, a prominent conservative voice, suggests that the assemblyman's views may resonate with some on the right, but it remains to be seen how his stance on Israel will play out in the broader election.
On a night NYC Democratic primary voters tapped some awful candidates, Midtown Manhattan ones “made a comparably good choice and picked state Assemblyman Micah Lasher,” who “wants to continue arms sales to Israel and does not agree that Israel has committed a ‘genocide,’ ” cheers National Reviews’s Jim Geraghty.
