Zohran Mamdani has emerged as a formidable contender in the Democratic mayoral primary against establishment figure Andrew Cuomo. His potential victory has sparked concern among Republicans, who view his progressive stance as a significant threat to their party. In response, the New York Republican Party and various conservative voices are launching a campaign to label Mamdani as a radical figure and are rallying support for Curtis Sliwa as the challenger. Additionally, heightened partisan rhetoric reflects fears over the shifting political landscape in New York City.
"Mamdani must be defeated in November - and Republican Curtis Sliwa is the only candidate who will fight for safe streets and economic opportunity for all New Yorkers," Party chairman Ed Cox said in a statement.
"Every vulnerable House Democrat will own him, and every Democrat running in a primary will fear him," NRCC spokesman Mike Marinella said.
