GAME OVER MASSEY BUT WILL BOWSER DEFEAT DEBLASIO?

New York City — July 6, 2017 10:00AM along the 42nd Street Plaza inside Bryant Park (just north of the Bryant Park lawn), Garrett Bowser, gay 46 year old Greenwich Village resident, is announcing his Independent campaign for mayor of New York City with a progressive platform appealing to conservatives and liberals who are ready to work together to provide sustainable solutions to the issues we face today.

Bowser insists, “We have all the resources we need when we work together to provide sustainable solutions to generate new wealth, strengthen community, and create a wider-scope of benefit without burdening New Yorkers with higher taxes.”
