We feel just as confident as we did yesterday that we will win this race in November."
"Mamdani's remarks came after Politico reported incumbent NYC Mayor Eric Adams was offered a position at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. In addition, the New York Times reported that Republican challenger Curtis Sliwa has also been offered a position in the Trump White House, clearing the field and boosting the chances of Andrew Cuomo, who was embarrassed by Mamdani in the NYC Democratic primary earlier this year. Cuomo is now running as an Independent."
