• 0:09
  Speaker 1: be here Halloween. Happy Halloween to you. Mark. Is a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: nice long weekend. You may remember me from all the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: years I've been on New York City TV, and it
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: was the morning news, Acer morning and midday. In fact,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: for a bunch of those years at Channel seven, I
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: was there twenty years. I was also the morning anchor
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: for a year at the Channel five. I was there
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: at good Day. I did that back in two thousand
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: and two to two thousand and three, if I recall.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: And these days, I host a daily show on a
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: New Jersey based news channel. It's called on New Jersey.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: You could stream it live or watch it rerun at
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: o NNJ dot com. And a food side for you foodies.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: It's the Food Dude. It's free. It has lots of
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: recipes on there if you want to think of something
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to cook on the weekend or on a weeknight. Thefood
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Dude dot us. The food Dude dot us. Good to
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: be here. We got so much happening. Busy, busy week
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Phone lines are open at eight hundred three two one
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten eight hundred three to two one zero
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: seven ten. Well, we just heard during the news a
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: massive flooding. Did you see that weather yesterday? Man, I
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: mean we heard about it. We got the heads up
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: that it was coming. But man, until it comes, you
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: don't think it's going to be as bad as it was.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: The high winds and that heavy rain one to three
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: inches of rain in New York left some parts of
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: the low lying areas Brooklyn, especially under a feet of water.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: And as we heard so far that we know of,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: we have two people who died unfortunately in that flash flooding.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Just awful, awful. Just remember, especially if you live in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: a basement apartment, whenever you have a big storm headed
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: our way, please stay upstairs. If you live upstairs and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: there's a basement apartment, invite your neighbors to come up
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: and spend the afternoon or whatever with you, or the
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: evening if there's a big storm. And of course, don't
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: drive into or onto a street if you don't know
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: how deep the water is. They say, turn around, don't drown.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: All you need is like six inches or four inches
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: of water whatever. You could lose control of your car,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: So don't take that risk. And then of course, there's
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that awful news that happened down in the islands in
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Jamaica Hurricane Melissa. So far we know fifty nine deaths.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It was just disgusting, how horrible those poor people struggling.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: And there was one mother who was talking about how
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: she tried to comfort her kids. Listen up, who's the
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: candidate on Let's see? Where did I? I just did
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: something to that sound bite. I'm sorry, but this mother
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: talked about how she's trying to comfort her child or
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: her children. But it's hard to do that, as she
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: says it, with all the debt destruction around her, having
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: lost friends and friends, having lost homes as well, And
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: imagine then having to be the tough person and be
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: strong for your child. But with fifty nine people that
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: we know have so far lost in Jamaica, that number
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: is going to go up, I think, sadly, as they
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: find more bodies in remote areas. It is now coming
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: up on ten minutes after eleven o'clock on your Friday Halloween.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: The mayor's race continues to tighten. But is it too
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: little too late? Well, here were the three candidates at
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the recent debate.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Who's the candidate on the left that can somehow derail him,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: because I don't see anybody with a national presidence that
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: can pull that off.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Where are you on that?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I see somebody right here in my zoom camera. And
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: by the way, only for you zoom.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: I hate zoom, but for you. But where's the stephen A.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Smith presidential bubble.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I'd have to give too much money, Bill, I'd have
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: to give up too much money. The Democrats definitely need
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: an outside here. Yeah, that was obviously stephen A. Smith
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: and Bill Maher talking about the candidates, and here were
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: the candidates of the debate.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I am the last person on this stage that mister
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Trump wants to see as mayor. I am Donald Trump's
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: worst nightmare, as a progress of Muslim immigrant who actually
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: fights for the things that I believe in. Oh, if
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: you believe Andrew Cuomo, who's calling up Trump all the time,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: I'm going to stand up to him, or mandamie, I'm
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: going to stand up to him. He stand up to
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: President Trump, who controls all the money.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Guess what we the citizens lose.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Well, this morning we had Andrew Cuomo in. He was
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: on MENTI in the morning and we was talking about,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: among other things, the infusion of cash that former mayor
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Michael Bloomberg had donated through a political action committee. But
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: it looks like it might be just too little, too late,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: because we've got three poles. If you saw these polls
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: that came out in the last week, and the closest
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: pole has Cuomo. Though he improved, he's still ten points
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: behind zoron Mamdani. The amazing thing is people are buying
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Mamdanni's lines. Will they revolt in six months or a
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: year when they find out that everything he promised, literally
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: down to the item, is impossible. He can't do He
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: doesn't have the authority as mayor to do any of
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: the things he's talking about. He can't freeze the rent,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: he can't give you free food, he can't all the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: things he's talking about. Sounded like a wonderful communist fantasy,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: but it can't happen. It doesn't happen that way. In fact,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the one experiment where there was a community supermarket in
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Kansas City failed miserably. In spite of the millions upon
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: millions of dollars infused by the state, it failed miserably.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: They had to shut it down. It was a disgrace.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: It became basically a den of crime. People went there
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: to shoot up drugs. They stole items. Because you're supposed
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: to sign out items and be a looted a certain amount.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: They weren't following the rules. It was a disgusting breakdown
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of humanity. And if you think it's going to be
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: better here, I'll scratching my head to wonder where you're
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: coming from. Switching over to New Jersey. New Jersey is
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: interesting right now. And I should remind everybody you're listening
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to seven to ten, woar the Voice of New York.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: It's Ken Rosotto win from Mark on Halloween Friday, and
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: those phone lines are we're open eight hundred and three
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: to two one zero, seven to ten. In New Jersey,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: it's Chitdarelli and Mikey Cheryl. And right now all the
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: new polls, and they were two done two days apart,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: so I guess one was done on Tuesday and I
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: believe one was done on Thursday. In both cases they
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: have Mikey Cheryl one point ahead of Jack Cheddarelli, but
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the margin vera is three points, so that means that
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Jack Chitdarelli could be two points up at this point,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: depending on how you look at it. The bottom line
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: is the energy this man has right now and the
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: support behind him. I'm seeing I live in New Jersey,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: I see Chitarelly signs everywhere. I'd say for every ten
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Chittarelli signs, I'm seeing one Mikey Cheryl sign And last
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: night Chittarelli was on there was a town hall that
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Fox News had with Sean Hannity. Listen to the response
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: he got from the crowd as he walked in.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Let's go maybe hometown crowd, hometown crowd.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: It it just became a Trump.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Rally, or as Jack Chitarelli followed up with, it became
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: a Chitarelli rally, because that's what Chitdarelli is finding everywhere
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: he goes throughout the state. It starts out with a
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: few hundred people, it quickly grows to a few thousand people,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: people cheering him on, people coming up to him. He
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: has four Democrats in the state who have either endorsed
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: him or have shifted parties to the Republican Party and
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: endorsed him. So this is something the opposite can't be
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: said for Mikey Cheryl right now. And the fact is
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: that New Jersey has eight hundred and sixty thousand more
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: registered Democrats than it does Republicans, So Mikey Cheryl should
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: be ahead by twenty points right now, fifteen to twenty points,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: and she's not. Most of her support is from women
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: and from younger people. Younger people not to vote, especially
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: in off year elections, by anywhere near the numbers of
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: as older people and the older people are supporting Jack Cheddarelli,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see what happens. I recently
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: had a polster on my show that I do on
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: New Jersey O n NJ dot com, and I do
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: that every day in New Jersey, and the pollster was saying,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: how when you when they survey different people and they
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: say that they are likely voters, and then you it
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: turns out that half of them who say one thing
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: obviously doesn't come to pass. And he said that that
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: means that either they're not being honest or when they
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: say they're going to be a likely voter, that they
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: don't realize something's going to come up. So when you
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: see a poll of likely voters, as much as it's
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: probably more accurate than someone than a poll of just
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: registered voters, you know that doesn't mean they've signed a
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: contract saying I will vote and this is how I'm
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: going to vote, you know, so just just remember that,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: keep that in mind. Jack Chitdarelli was talking about the
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: recent polls.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: Our internal poll in twenty one said that we had
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: a real shot this time. The internal polling says a
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: whole lot better. But listen, all I could tell is
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: wherever I go around the state, the energy's electric. The
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: reception of minority communities has been overwhelming positive. And when
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Democratic mayors across the state are endorsing in the Republican nominee,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: it tells you we're on the.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Sum Now, apparently some of the ballots are a number
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: of the ballots that have been returned early. All we
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: know is when we get ballots returned from Democrats or Republicans,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: we don't know how the people voted. So for all
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: we know, people could have registered Republican but voted Democrat.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: So you never know when you get the returned polls,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: the early ballots, I should say. But nonetheless, here's Jack
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: talking about the early ballots.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: We've seen the greatest number of Republicans returned vote by
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: mail ballots. That's a very very good sign. They went
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: out and last third week of September, and we're matching
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: them voter for voter here in the six days or
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: five days of early voting that we've had thus far.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: That'll conclude on Sunday. Listen, if we go into election
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: day within a certain number of points, we're going to
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: win this thing.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: And then, and I think he's right, the fact is
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that Republicans tend to wait till election day. Democrats tend
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: to early vote. That's been the pattern for the last
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: ten to fifteen twenty years wherever early voting has occurred.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I remember as a kid, early voting only existed like
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: one day before election day, and it was meant for
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: people who had physical challenges or the elderly, and then
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: that became two or three days. Then it became anyone
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: who wants to vote early. Then the pandemic happened and
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: everybody got ballots in the mail, and it kept changing,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: so no longer do we have an election day. The
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: problem with that is you could vote a month early,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: a month before election day for somebody, and then between
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: when you early vote at election day you find out
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: that the person is a mass murderer, you know and
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: then what your vote is cast, and once it's cast,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: that's it. You can't go and change it. So this
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: is the problem I have. I'm sure you probably have
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: with early voting, but while it exists, take advantage of it.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: The Democrats do. Republicans should take advantage of it as well.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Make sure your vote gets in because come election Day,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: anything could happened. Bad weather, you get sick, you have
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to work late, you never know, get that vote in asap.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: In New Jersey you can early vote until Sunday, and
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: then if you don't vote by Sunday, you have to
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: wait because Monday there is no voting. Then Tuesday you
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: have to vote in person, and that is election Day.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Seven ten WR the Voice of New York. It is
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Halloween Friday, and this is Ken Rosotto in on the
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Mark Simone Show. Give us a call eight hundred and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: three to two one zero seven ten. You ever get
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: kind of really tired with all the household drudgery, all
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the chores around the house. Apparently a company in California
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: has come up with a robot. Now you're going to say, Ken,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: there've been robots. No, they literally are mass manufacturing a
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: robot that is five foot six right now, it's a
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: humanoid robot, so it's one of those walking things. It
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: can talk, it can communicate with you, just like you
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: know the robots in the movies from years ago. And
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: this thing is going to cost twenty thousand dollars. When
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I read this, I thought, either A it's not going
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: to be out for fifty years, or B it's going
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: to cost one hundred thousand or more. Now twenty thousand dollars.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: And in fact, if you want to rent it, they
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: have a let me see, let me get the details
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: for you.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: It says here, if you want to test it out first,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: you can use a per month subscription plant. That's what
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: they're calling it, and that is apparently like four ninety
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: nine or something like that. So it's almost like renting
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: a car, testing out a car or something. And this
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: thing could be trained to do just about anything. Water
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: plants do the laundry, eventually, probably cook your meal, clean floors,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: do whatever, sweep. So how nice would that be to
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: do all your household chores, especially if you are physically challenged,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: or if you're a single person and you have no
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: one to help you, or if you're an elderly person
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and you want some company. Granted it's not a human,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: but nonetheless it is a character walking around that may
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: make you feel almost like having a pet, that may
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: make you feel like somebody is with you too, to
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: keep your company. Seven to ten WLA The Voice of
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: New York. There was a New Manhattan Institute poll out
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: that shows that if Congresswoman Elise Stephanic were to run
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: against Governor Coffee Hochel, who talks with the big porcelain veneers. Oh,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: I said, I would never say that again. I'm sorry,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Kathy Hochel, that if Elise Stephanic were to run against
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Kathy Hokel for governor of New York, Stephanic would beat
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: her by one point. That is significant. New York City
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: may be blue, the state, though, is not. The state
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: is purple. You get out of the tri State, you
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: get up like north of Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, you see
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: things turn red rather quickly. Poles are just, of course,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: a momentary snapshot of opinion, but it shows you that
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: New York State is very much up for grabs outside
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: of New York City, and the citizens are fed up
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: with the status quo. So we'll see what happens with that.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: But she has not officially announced that she would run
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: for governor, but I think at this point if she
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: did announce, you would see a Republican victory first time
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: in many, many years in New York. Seven ten wor

  Speaker 1: we'll speak with Republican New York City Councilwoman Joanne Ariola
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: about the race for mayor on what she thinks it
