Why did New Yorkers elect a senator that was not from NY?

New Yorkers figured out that they can't trust New York politicians.

If you want to become a senator you may need to move to where there are open jobs. There are only 100 total senate jobs and they are only open every six years. It is a common political practice by both parties to become a resident of a state where there will be a senate opening.

But thats not what you want to hear and if you vote for best answer you'll vote for someone who says "Yeah Hilary is a dumb witch". The presidents you mentioned, Carter (Democrat) and Nixon (Republican) were both great presidents in their own way. Carter was a peacmaker, not a war monger, he was seen as ineffective although he brokered the SALT weapons treaty and perhaps the most honest man to ever hold that office; Nixon was a cheating lying crook who also got us out of Vietnam and ended the era of China being a threat to US.

I am not a Hilary fan although I will vote for her if she gets the democratic nomination but you're right, this current administration is proof that we will survive no matter who is elected.

Says something good about New Yorkers and what makes you think people in Arkansas wouldn't elect Hilary? But wait, since you must think Bush is a better President than Carter, what do you know?

Because New York Rocks and we New Yorkers deserve the very best. That is why our senator will be the next president of the United States. Why are you mad. Don't hate the player. Hate the game.

i guess new yorkers got sick and tired of the republicans and their 'greed is good' credo.

when you think about it, the cons aren't all that hard to beat...

For the same reason there Yankee fans.........DAAAAAAA
