He is quite desperate to be a mayor. Maybe try a smaller town.

"Vote Blue No Matter Who!!"

[–] TVA@thebrainbin.org 16 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Funny how that is only a thing when they're running a "practically a Republican" 'Democrat' and not when someone who's actually a leftist starts getting some approval.

Could someone explain what's happening to a non-american? I was under the impression that this Madmani gentleman had already won the mayoral race. Are they having another election for something else??

[–] user_name@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Mamdani won the primary election. In the US parties don't choose their candidates for elections (in b4 "but superdelegates!") like you see in other electoral systems where an internal party committee selects a candidate list. So this election was determining who was going to be the Democratic candidate for the actual election.

But New York has some weird fusion laws that allow people to run on multiple party lines so Cuomo, even though he lost the Democratic nomination, can still run in the general election.

VoTe BlUe No MaTtEr WhO!! 🙄

[–] gabbath@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yes. Cuomo is running as an independent, so you should definitely vote Mamdani, the winner of the Democratic primary.

Great, I hope Sexual Predator Cuomo, Crooked Cop Adams, and Xenophobic Vigilante Sliwa continues their campaign so they split the idiot votes.

Hope lots of people keep asking him about why covid patients kept getting sent to nursing homes that were not prepared to care for them back in 2020. He was looking so good with those daily updates until it became clear they were avoiding or downplaying that question.
