Primary election day in New York City is next Tuesday – June 24. The mayor’s race is a pivotal test for progressives nationwide. That’s why we’re thrilled to endorse Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani for Mayor!

Zohran is surging in the polls -- within 2 points of Andrew Cuomo, according to Politico.

The choice is simple: America’s biggest city could have a disgraced, abusive former Governor endorsed by billionaires -- or an inspiring generational leader endorsed by a coalition of unions, progressive elected officials and groups, and community leaders who fight for working families.

In the city’s ranked choice system, voters can rank up to 5 candidates for mayor. Then, in a series of rounds, the lowest vote getter automatically gets eliminated and their supporters’ votes go to that supporter’s next choice.

Alongside the Working Families Party, we urge voters to rank Zohran Mamdani #1, longtime progressive Brad Lander #2, and to NOT rank Cuomo at all.

In fact, Zohran and Lander have endorsed each other: "We both love New York City. And that’s why it’s so important to not send scandal-ridden, corrupt Andrew Cuomo to City Hall. Brad and I are officially telling our supporters: If I’m number one, rank the other number two."

Zohran is a 33-year old organizer-turned-Assemblyman who says his campaign is about "fighting for the working class every day." Bernie Sanders endorsed him because he will "stand up to powerful corporate interests" on behalf of working families. Issues like child care, free bus service for workers, and affordable housing are top issues.

Of the $33 million spent in this race so far, $18 million is for Andrew Cuomo – including by big corporations and billionaire Mike Bloomberg on Cuomo’s behalf. The next 5 candidates were $13.5 million combined. But the polls are still tight, which is why our support is needed now.

Zohran’s campaign has taken the media by storm and galvanized an unprecedented volunteer army of thousands of everyday New Yorkers around a clear vision: a city that working class people can afford to call home.

Zohran says, “The people have the power.” He made a closing argument against Cuomo in the final debate: "I have never had to resign in disgrace. I have never cut Medicaid. I have never stolen hundreds of millions of dollars from the MTA. I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued for their gynecological records. And I have never done these things because I am not you, Mr. Cuomo."

And Brad Lander has been a terrific New York City comptroller. As you probably saw, he was just arrested by masked ICE agents while accompanying immigrants to court, simply for asking to see a warrant. He's a model of resistance for elected officials, and we're grateful for his leadership.

This election is a historic flashpoint in our fight to stop corrupt politicians and billionaires from buying our democracy and working against everyday families.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
