Eric Gioia would be tough to beat, he's spent the past few years building up to this. He has good name recognition within the Manhattan elite and a really good story to sell to the burroughs. His press has really decreased the last year or so.

He is a total #$%hole though, and most connected people know this but many are afraid of him. From what I've heard there's a lot of skeletons in the closet that may come out if his record and story is really scrutinized.

A really beloved candidate could take this, but I don't see any appearing and Norman Seigel is not that person.
