Why the Presidential Front-Runners Need a New York Win

How are New York celebrities and socialites voting in the New York primary on Tuesday? The Cut compiled a who's-who guide — and because it's New York, this turned into FEEL THE BERN versus HRC.

Consider the high-society Hillary supporters (Anna Wintour, Gloria Steinem), the comedians (Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman), and the Bernie bros (Chris Kantrowitz, Glenn O'Brien), and scroll down for more highly famous and highly political New Yorkers: Kerry Washington, Mario Batali, Olivia Wilde, Gaby Hoffmann, and Audrey Gelman. Plus: many, many selfies.
