I have always found the people in NYC interesting in elections. For such a liberal city, it elected Rudy 2 times. Now this election. I like the guy myself but wonder what New Yorker's think of him?

No surprises, except for the narrowness of the margin:

Bloomberg first bashed the process seriously by arm-twisting the negligible City Council into abolishing the two-term law voted in by the people. Then he crushed it to death with his money. The media onslaught that passed for a campaign had to be experienced to be believed. I voted for Thompson.
