City employees unfortunately have a lot of voter power due to the unions, balanced against an otherwise very low voter turnout for Mayoral elections. DeBlasio is said to have been very loose on parking enforcement of 'placard abuse' as they call it. It's pretty obvious downtown during the week and also downtown Brooklyn. The City picks winners and losers just like that.
