[[Gary Greenberg]] ran close behind, with 8,301; he was on the ballot in Manhattan only. Gary's share of the Manhattan Attorney General's race was 3.65%, and he pulled better than 6% in some districts; in two of the city's 13 assembly districts, Gary outpolled the Conservative line. In other races, [[Tom Avery]] pulled 5,903 votes city-wide for Comptroller, and [[Bill Lawry]] got 2,898 for City Council President. [[Louis J. Sicilia|Lou Sicilia]] got 2,507 in Manhattan, running for Borough President, and [[Paul Streitz]] received 1,480 for Councilman at Large from Manhattan. [[Libertarian Party of New York|FLP]] sent out a press release on the anniversary of [[Roger MacBride]]'s historic Electoral Vote last year, and is now gearing up for '74; membership has grown from 160 to 270 since last May. | [[Libertarian Party of New York|NEW YORK'S Free Libertarian Party]] has reported final results on last November's campaign; top vote-getter was [[Fran Youngstein]], who got 8,8l8 votes, or 48% of the total for the five small parties (eat your hearts out, Marxists!).
