Kentucky official lured NYC businesses with ‘Bourbon’ and asked them to relocate to Kentucky.
Kentucky Secretary of State Michael Adams placed his pitch to New York businesses that they should relocate to Kentucky to escape from Zohran Mamdani’s administration. “NYC companies: had a day or two to reassess? Come to a place that is not against capitalism. My Office offers the lowest business registration fees in America, and our income tax is going down, down, down. The main ingredient in a Manhattan? Bourbon,” Adams said. On November 4, as New York, New Jersey and Virginia went to the polls, Adams reminded Kentucky residents that Kentucky did not have a vote this year — triggering funny responses on social media. “We’re getting calls about polls being closed. They are closed because we do not have elections today. Kentucky votes next year. You cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry,” Adams wrote adding: “Have I mentioned my repeated call for civic education.”Social media users had a good laugh, assuming the eagerness of Kentucky residents to vote for Mamdani.
Florida sheriff invites New Yorkers, offers jobs
Florida sheriff invited New Yorkers and even offered jobs to NYPD officers.
Kentucky is not the only Red state inviting New Yorkers a day after Mamdani won the mayoral election in NYC. Florida sheriff Mike Chitwood even offered jobs to NYPD officers if they want to leave NYC. “If you’re an NYC resident or a great NYPD officer unhappy with the results of tonight’s Mayoral election, let me be the first to invite you into the welcoming arms of Volusia County,” Sheriff Mike Chitwood wrote on Facebook Tuesday night.“To my NYPD friends, if you want to come to work in an organization that is cutting edge, innovating every day, a place where you’re appreciated by the community and supported by the elected officials, then check out the Volusia Sheriff’s Office and take a look at how we’re getting the job done,” he said.“To all New Yorkers, if you’re looking for a better quality of life, from education, to the outdoors, to the beautiful weather, check out Volusia County,” he wrote. “We are open for business. Tonight’s election is not the end. It can be the beginning of a new life.”
