In an unprecedented cross-endorsement, New York City mayoral candidates Zohran Mamdani and Michael Blake pledged to support a progressive agenda emphasizing affordability and social justice. During a press conference in the Bronx, both candidates, who are former state legislators and children of immigrants, expressed their joint commitment to shifting the mayoral race away from traditional political influences toward grassroots initiatives. Mamdani praised Blake's leadership against former Governor Cuomo's policies, while Blake underscored the campaign's focus on affordability and prioritizing the everyday needs of New Yorkers.
Mamdani credited Blake for his outspoken opposition to former Governor Cuomo and his record of values-driven leadership.
Blake announced he would rank Mamdani as his No. 2 choice in the ranked-choice election, emphasizing that the two share a vision for a 'New York City where everyday New Yorkers can thrive, not just survive.'
