US EditionNY Times editorial board: Mamdani doesn’t deserve spot on New Yorkers’ ballots
- On Monday, the editorial board of the New York Times recommended that voters exclude Zohran Mamdani from the Democratic mayoral primary ballot for New York City on June 24.
- The board criticized Mamdani for his limited relevant background, highlighting that he has never led a public agency or business and has difficulty advancing his policy goals.
- Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist favoring rent freezes, faces opposition from the Orthodox Jewish community and criticism for an agenda seen as ill-suited to city challenges.
- The editorial criticized Mamdani's platform as an intensified iteration of the disappointing leadership seen during Mr. de Blasio's time as mayor and cautioned that his support for rent freezes might reduce the availability of housing, making it more difficult for younger residents and newcomers to secure affordable homes.
- The board refrained from endorsing a specific candidate, instead highlighting alternatives like Brad Lander amid ethical concerns regarding Mamdani and former Governor Andrew Cuomo, leaving the primary race outcome uncertain.
