Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., urged New Yorkers to vote in the primary election on June 24, warning that Andrew Cuomo aims to use a mayoral win as a path to the presidency. State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is a leading opponent against Andrew Cuomo in the primary election on June 24, with early voting already underway.
Ocasio-Cortez expressed disappointment at fellow Democrats who previously called for Cuomo’s resignation but are now endorsing him for mayor, stating it is “unconscionable.” Early voting has begun, and recent polls indicate that Mamdani is competitive against Cuomo in ranked-choice voting for the upcoming primary election.
