On the Election Day ballot next month, New Yorkers will get the normal choices: the Democratic incumbent, his Republican challenger, an insurgent or two and, oh yeah, a guy who hijacked a plane at gunpoint 17 years ago.
Meet Aaron Commey, the Libertarian Party challenger to Mayor Bill de Blasio. Sure, he used a handgun to commandeer a Boeing 757 flight headed to Las Vegas on July 27, 2000, then served more than a decade in a federal mental ward, but he says he is cured and New Yorkers can trust him.
"I am of sound mind and open to discuss things," Commey told Newsweek. "I will be open and let them know who I was is not who I am today."

Must be Democrat !!! LOL
If they don't elect him, then they are racist, and prejudiced against people with mental illness. Of was an lbgtqxyz person, he could throw that in there too.
He may beat former Washington DC Mayor Marion "Crackhead the B*^@h set me up Barry" for the all time record of "can't believe he got elected" politicians. At least Barry just went to jail this guy was certified crazy for more than a decade. He may still be better than De Blasio when you think about it.
