Just realized I helped phone bank for Oliver Larkin polls had him in a tie with moskowitz and kinda why I decided to help.

I did think the campaign team made some critical mistakes. Where their first day of phone banking was a fund raiser and ended up being a bait and switch. There might be some analysis there showing what they should have done.

I think Oliver should either run as an independent in the general or help campaign for other campaigns. With running as an independent Oliver really does have the numbers to spoil the election and that can be a DSA barging chip and the campaign can promote DSA values. Oliver can still do media tour and make his clips. An independent campaign can get concessions from moskowitz and get them to adopt more DSA values. Coumo ran independent after ZOHRAN Mamdani won the primaries, so establishment Dems seem to adopt the strategy

Of course helping other campaigns is also practical. Getting Nixon into Congress would be awesome and whoever else into local positions would lay ground work for future campaigns
