The 'Jews for Zohran' campaign, led by Alicia Singham Goodwin, aims to support New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and counter antisemitism accusations. Goodwin, linked to a billionaire reportedly funding radical groups, utilizes voter files and targeted phone banks to engage Jewish voters. The campaign seeks support from influential Jewish politicians. Critics, including former Queens Councilman Rory Lancman, express concern over Mamdani's past support for controversial anti-Israel slogans, suggesting a connection between this rhetoric and the campaign's efforts.
"We had our own voter file and phone banks targeting Jewish voters, with Jews talking to Jews," Singham Goodwin said during a July 1 interview on WBAI radio.
Alicia Singham Goodwin, 33, who serves as political director of the progressive nonprofit Jews for Racial and Economic Justice, spearheaded the 'Jews for Zohran' campaign.
The initiative aims to shield Mamdani from accusations of antisemitism and secure support from Jewish voters, the Post reported.
Former Queens Democratic City Councilman Rory Lancman called the campaign 'frightening,' citing Mamdani's controversial defense of the 'globalize the Intifada' slogan.
