Who’s to be Mayor in the Big Apple?


Twitter co-founder and CEO of Square, Jack Dorsey, has a new job in mind.  He wants to become New York City’s Mayor…one day.  In a recent interview shown on CBS’s ’60 Minutes,’ Lara Logan said that Dorsey is serious about moving to New York City at some point, and thereafter running for the position of Mayor.



Jack Dorsey was reported to have said that whenever he finds himself in New York City, he feels “electricity.”  He compares the feeling to “being caught in a car during a thunderstorm.”  Maybe the guy who does not even have a desk (he just uses his iPad), and had a speech impediment in his youth could lead the city to great things one day.



In the meantime, just a few days ago, Republican Tom Allon pulled out of the current mayoral race. The reasons cited were lack of campaign funding.   Given this, it seems as if the Liberal Party is now back in with a chance as it had previously supported Allon.
