In the Bronx, all she has to do is get her name on the ballot again in 2020 and she'll win. Hands down. Probably zero chance anyone but a democrat-communist could ever be elected in that district. If your name is on the ballot as a dem-com, you win.
Having said that, neither NY state Senate seat is up in 2020.
Schumer's term ends in 2022.
My prediction is that the occasional-communist is going to try to primary Schumer for the seat.
I think her chances of beating him might be even-money at this point.
They'll only improve if Chuck the Schmuck keeps takin' a beatin' from Mr. Trump...
