“I encourage you to go to the next diner with me, I’ll probably be there
in the morning,” she said. “Sit with me and watch the people come over
and thank me.”
Polls support her observations: A Siena College survey in April found
that New York City residents opposed congestion pricing, 64 percent to
33 percent, with suburban respondents disliking it even more.
But public sentiment has improved following the implementation of
congestion pricing in other cities. And even this attempt to underscore
her ties to everyday New Yorkers seemed to be rooted in a bygone city
where diners still reigned, fueling a perception that her western New
York roots had shaped a political outlook anchored in the past.
Indeed, the governor’s seeming empathy for motorists has some history.
Twenty-six years ago, as a city councilwoman in the Buffalo suburb of
Hamburg, Ms. Hochul gained notoriety for her opposition to commuter
tolls on the New York State Thruway.

The NY Times thinks it is backward and old fashion for politicians
listen to its voters and look after their interests....
