US EditionHogg’s political group endorses Mamdani in NYC mayoral race
NEW YORK CITY, JUN 20 – David Hogg's endorsement boosts Zohran Mamdani, whose progressive platform aims to aid over 2 million rent-stabilized tenants, challenging establishment-backed Andrew Cuomo in a contentious race.
- New York City's Democratic primary for mayor is scheduled for June 24, with front-runners Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani competing for the nomination.
- The race follows Cuomo's 2021 resignation amid sexual harassment allegations and features Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist embracing progressive housing and transit policies.
- Mamdani's platform includes rent freezes, free public childcare, free city buses, and city-owned grocery stores, while he faces criticism over his defense of the slogan 'globalize the intifada.'
- Polls show Cuomo leading by about 10 points with under 50 percent in the first round, while Mamdani gains progressive endorsements and support from figures like David Hogg.
- The primary's outcome could signal whether New Yorkers favor Cuomo's law-and-order focus or Mamdani's affordability agenda amid rising concerns over antisemitism and public safety.
