Will Mamdani win over the Dems?
Description
Zohran Mamdani is now the Democratic nominee for mayor, riding a wave of post-primary momentum that includes major endorsements from the teachers union and key political figures. Will the rest of the party — and the city — fall in line? NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross and political reporters Bobby Cuza and Ayana Harry unpack the evolving dynamics of the Mamdani campaign, including recent staff shake-ups and what these endorsements could mean for the general election. After that, their focus shifts to the Democratic holdouts who are running as independent candidates. But Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams are spending more time attacking each other rather than Mamdani. The “Off Topic” team explores how the opposition is gearing up to challenge Mamdani, the contrasting strategies of Cuomo and Adams, and the unpredictable influence of President Donald Trump’s latest remarks on the campaign.
