"New Yorkers will elect their 111th mayor in 30 days. With a narrower field of candidates after Mayor Eric Adams abandoned his reelection bid last weekend, the remaining mayoral hopefuls are entering the final stretch of the race and eager to drum up late support from the faithful. Here is how the three major mayoral candidates spent their Sunday from church visits to paper shredding."
"Mamdani pointed to his identification as a democratic socialist and quoted Baptist minister and civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr.: Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, there must be a better distribution of wealth for all God's children in this country. The pastor asked Mamdani about his affordability plan for homeowners and renters concerned about the cost of housing and the cost of living, particularly in Brooklyn."
Thirty days remain until New York City elects its 111th mayor, with the field narrowed after Mayor Eric Adams ended his reelection bid. The three major candidates are intensifying outreach to secure late support. Zohran Mamdani visited Cornerstone Baptist Church in Bedford-Stuyvesant, sat for a podcast-style interview with Senior Pastor Lawrence E. Aker III, and attended public paper-shredding events in Harlem. Mamdani identified as a democratic socialist, quoted Martin Luther King Jr. on wealth distribution, and addressed affordability, displacement, and gentrification, citing Bed-Stuy as an example of neighborhood change.
