This won't please notoriously "image-conscious" gubernatorial candidate Steve Levy. Observer reporter Azi Paybarah tweeted a link to this mock board game, which puts the face of the Suffolk County executive and recently-declared Republican candidate on Borat's scantily-clad body. The game—dubbed "Steve Levy's Wild Mustache Ride To Albany"—evokes allegations of anti-Latino policing under Levy's watch, and references a controversial quote in which he said an anti-bias housing law would make it so that "[e]ven Shaniqua could file a complaint." Levy isn't the first gubernatorial hopeful to get mocked this election season. Attorney General Andrew Cuomo still hasn't officially declared his candidacy, but the Democrat has already been the subject of a fairy tale-themed attack ad.
