Charlie McHenry<p>“Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City in June. It wasn't close. It was decisive. General election polls now have him at 50% against the combined field of Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams, and the Republican candidate. But here we are at the beginning of August, and the only big-name Democrats in New York that have endorsed him are AOC and Espaillat. Not Chuck Schumer. Not Hakeem Jeffries. Not Kathy Hochul. Not Ritchie Torres. He is the nominee of their own party with a commanding lead, and they're sitting on the sidelines while Andrew Cuomo flirts with Trump.” —Corbin Trent, Progressive Democratic activist <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Democrats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Democrats</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Political" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Political</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/NYCPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYCPol</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Progressive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Progressive</span></a> <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/ZohranMamdani" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ZohranMamdani</span></a></p>
