Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani holds a 10 point lead over Andrew Cuomo in New York City’s general election for mayor, while incumbent Mayor Eric Adams trails in fourth place behind Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, according to a new poll.
Mamdani gets support from 35 percent of registered voters, followed by Cuomo with 25, Sliwa with 14, Adams at 11 and attorney Jim Walden at 1 percent. Thirteen percent of respondents said they weren’t sure, while 1 percent picked another candidate.
By this point, the world is like that, eagerly watching if the guy can upset such a corrupt, biased system.
So he will definitely be the democratic nominee, right? And now he’s going against a republican in the general election? When is it?
He is the Democratic nominee. As the post says, he’s mostly going against the former Democratic, current independent, mayor Andrew Cuomo more than the republican candidate.
Now it’s time for the “vote blue no matter who” crowd to put up or shut up. So far, party loyalty doesn’t seem very important to a lot of the establishment.
That’s because they only support “democracy” when it is ruled by a corporate oligarchy. Neolibs will not abandon neoliberalism when it becomes unpopular, they will abandon the illusion of democracy; just like conservatives did.
Meh. We’ll see what happens when it threatens their office. A lot of them have already started changing their rhetoric.
Ah I missed that, sorry. But that’s hilarious, I can imagine the Republican-level mental gymnastics that many democrats are now required to pull off so they can still support Cuomo.
