The NY Daily News offers this report, which begins: “Mayor Bloomberg has called himself a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent – and now he wants to be a Liberal, too. Bloomberg, who switched his party affiliation from Democrat to Republican in 2001 to run for mayor, is hoping to revive the state’s Liberal Party so that he can run on its currently defunct ballot line in November. That would allow Bloomberg to run as a Republican-Liberal – a fusion that the city’s overwhelmingly Democratic majority might find a little easier to support in voting booths this November.” Thanks to Political Wire for the pointer.
