Mamdani has positioned himself as a serious contender in a Democratic primary shaped by scandal and competition. Despite the emergence of seasoned candidates like Brad Lander and Adrienne Adams, Mamdani remains a substantial threat to Cuomo, who is struggling with negative perceptions. The ranked-choice voting system complicates decisions for voters, leading groups to strategize around ranking candidates. Notably, progressive figures are pushing for tactical voting that prioritizes candidates like Mamdani over Cuomo, reflecting broader dynamics within the Democratic Party.
The state of politics for New York right now for the Democratic Party is really an amazing litmus test for the Democratic Party across the nation.
Progressive groups and leaders, like the Working Families Party and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have urged voters to leave Cuomo off their ballots.
