Remember NYC councilman Mark Levine? If you recall, he was one of the geniuses who told us we should gather in large numbers in Chinatown at the beginning of the pandemic:
Despite #coronavirus fear mongering, today's #LunarNewYear parade in Chinatown is a joyous show of pride.
If you missed it, make a point of coming here later to support local businesses during this difficult time. #DineInChinaTown 新年快乐 pic.twitter.com/IhyKAgiQjj

We haven’t done a post about him in a while but he popped up in our timeline today with this poll asking his followers if they’d be “more likely, less likely or same difference” to go to a restaurant if that restaurant required a vaccine passport:
NYers: Does a restaurant screening for vaccine/negative test for indoor dinning make you more or less likely to want to eat there?

He was responded to the news that Shake Shack founder Danny Meyer will require employees and customers to be vaccinated if they go to one of his fancy restaurants:

And, as we told you, Meyer is not including Shake Shack on the list because fancy restaurants are different than fast-casual restaurants, or something:

Anyway, his poll is not going as planned:
LOL. Of course, it’s “right-wing Twitter’s” fault:
Before right wing Twitter started rallying votes in this poll, "less likely" was at 5%. Quite impressive organizing effort!

Maybe he should ask this question of his hospital-worker union friends in local 1199 who are protesting vaccine mandates or are they now part of right-wing Twitter, too?
Today, we’re at NY-Presby’s main campus rallying for them to hear our members voices! Educate, not mandate vaccines! pic.twitter.com/OTUznIYG6R
