NYC Election Shock? A Conversation With NYC Councilman Frank Morano

NYC Election Shock? A Conversation With NYC Councilman Frank Morano

On the eve of a pivotal election in the Big Apple, Michael talks with Frank Morano—radio veteran and newly-minted member of the New York City Council. Together they dissect the fierce mayoral contest in New York City: Why are the polls so unpredictable? What role does talk radio play in shaping public perception and turnout? And crucially — which three levers of power (policing, rent regulation and zoning) could give the next mayor an outsized impact from day one? A must-listen for anyone tracking urban politics, voter behavior and how one race could ripple far beyond the five boroughs. Original air date 3 November 2025.
