She is to the left of me, and I consider myself as being on the left.

Two of her four sisters are on the left, including one who is a member of a fundamentalist Christian cult. The third sister is probably, although she won't actually tell us, at best a "swing voter," and she is, in fact, the last sister to remain on Staten Island.

But yes, it is NY's right wing borough.
