Mamdani won the House minority leader's district by double digits in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary, prompting one critic to ask, "Do those voters not matter?"
Then explain to me why the 2 other “liberal” candidates in NYC have refused to drop out and are threatening to split the democratic vote and allow a Republican to win the mayor’s office.
The two liberal candidates I am referring to are Mario Cuomo who lost the Democratic primary to Mamdani and Eric Adams the current mayor who is a registered Democrat.
And yet all of the major players in the democratic party refuse to endorse or acknowledge Mamdani and a few have even sided with those other candidates.
Why are you people all incapable of using people’s names? All the major players I care about have already endorsed Mamdani, as if it made any difference when he’s already the candidate and is beating all other candidates combined.
Oh no, it’s still there. It will be trotted out the next time progressives get angry at another corporate candidate.
I hope so because we absolutely cannot afford to lose any more ground to the christofascist dictatorship.

Idgaf what the third party candidates are doing, tbh. Same shit with the greens every election.

Oh I understand your confusion. You see, Mamdani won the DNC primary election earning the party’s spot on the ballot.
Cuomo is third party. If Adams is running he is also third party.
The ONLY democrat mayoral candidate is Mamdani.

This is my point.

There’s no question that we should always vote against the most right wing candidate. No reasonable person disagrees with this.
