I want to talk a bit about Zohran Mamdani’s
inspiring 12-point victory, and why he’s got the billionaire class running
scared.
How did Zohran pull off his win? Simple: He campaigned relentlessly on
lowering costs for families. He built a grassroots movement so strong that
millions of dollars in attack ads couldn’t touch him. On primary election
night, Andrew Cuomo conceded.
The people picked Mamdani, but it turns out there are some billionaires
and Wall Street CEOs who can’t stand the idea of a mayor who wants them to
pay their fair share to create a city that everyone can afford. So the
billionaires are dumping millions and millions of dollars into the race,
backing either of two deeply flawed candidates: Cuomo and incumbent Mayor
Eric Adams.
Maybe we should be asking ourselves why these Wall Street executives are
pouring in millions of dollars to stop Mamdani, the affordability
candidate.
Cuomo and Adams are tripping over themselves to haul in millions of
campaign dollars from billionaire donors. Adams raised $1 million in a
single night from donors with ties to big law firms, commercial
brokerages, and big real estate developers who could lose their
iron-fisted grip on New York in a Mamdani administration.
Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman held private auditions for his support,
inviting Adams and Cuomo to back-to-back meetings to tap dance for the
“hundreds of millions of dollars” he has said he will spend to keep
Mamdani out of office.
Let’s be clear: In a democracy, billionaires should not be able to buy our
elections and control our politicians. It was corruption when Elon Musk
poured millions into Donald Trump’s campaign, and it’s bad for our
democracy that Cuomo and Adams are bending the knee to billionaires now.
Elected officials should work for their constituents, not use their
government offices to hand out favors to a well-connected few.
New York voters spoke clearly in the primary election. They’re telling us
they’re ready for a party that fights boldly and unapologetically for
working families. It’s not just the right thing to do, it’s also a winning
strategy. And Democrats must be ready to deliver.
You don’t have to look very hard to see just how out of touch Adams and
Cuomo have become with working people. Adams withdrew from the primary
early on, and Cuomo felt so entitled to the nomination that he barely
bothered to campaign.
But they’ve both gotten the memo from their wealthy backers to step it up:
Adams is attacking Mamdani nonstop, and Cuomo is trying — and failing — to
carbon copy Mamdani’s authentic videos.
Meanwhile, Mamdani has charged ahead with plans to make New York more
affordable, and he’s showing how to pay for it by taxing the ultra-rich
and giant corporations. That may not make Mamdani popular with the richest
New Yorkers, but he’s laser-focused on fighting to make New York work for
working people. And more Democrats would do well to take notice.
Through our policies and our message, we have got to make it clear that
Democrats are the party of working families. That’s what Zohran Mamdani is
doing — and I’m proud to endorse him. At a time when people have grown
cynical about Democratic promises, showing our willingness to tax
billionaires and giant corporations to pay for vital programs — like
Mamdani is calling for — strengthens our credibility.
[ [link removed] ]I’ll keep working relentlessly to elect more fighters for the working
class like Zohran Mamdani. If you support our grassroots efforts to make
America work for everyday people, not just the billionaires, and to build
a Democratic Party that fights for us — then chip in whatever you can to
support our movement.
Thanks for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
