""In a world and a nation that is crying to end the gerontocracy of our leadership, that wants a new day... it is unconscionable to send Andrew Cuomo to Gracie Mansion.""
""If voters can get Mr. Mamdani over the finish line, it will be a blow to the gerontocracy not just in their city and state, but in the halls of Congress as well.""
Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez urged New Yorkers to vote against Governor Cuomo in the upcoming primary, labeling his potential nomination as a continuation of the Democratic Party's gerontocracy. Speaking at a rally for 33-year-old state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, Ocasio-Cortez emphasized the necessity for a new generation of leadership. With polls indicating Mamdani's competitive edge against Cuomo, Ocasio-Cortez's passionate appeal highlighted the need for change in leadership dynamics not only in New York but also nationally, especially given Cuomo's ambitions for higher office.
