"Strongly Democratic"

The article refers to NYC being "strongly Democratic" in 1837; given that the party was only about ten years old at the time, I think a bit more context is needed for the statement, as it seems to draw on a more modern view. I'm not saying it's untrue, just that it seems a bit of a reflex statement along the lines of "everyone knows it's a Democratic city." MisfitToys 20:42, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tammany Hall was founded in around 1800 and in short order came to dominate politics in the city. It eventually became aligned with the nationwide Democratic Party. I am not sure how to express this notion in a pithy way - Tragic Baboon (banana receptacle) 21:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
