Cuomo's Ego Could Hand NYC to Socialism: The Mayoral Race Nobody's Watching

Cuomo's Ego Could Hand NYC to Socialism: The Mayoral Race Nobody's Watching

Patriots, with just 12 days until election day, America's largest city is about to elect a 33-year-old Democratic Socialist who refuses to say Israel has a right to exist. The biggest obstacle to stopping him? Andrew Cuomo.

Yes, that Andrew Cuomo—the disgraced former governor who resigned over sexual harassment allegations and a nursing home scandal that killed 15,000 elderly New Yorkers. His narcissistic comeback attempt is splitting the anti-socialist vote and handing victory to a radical who questions Israel's existence.

Zoran Mamdani: The Socialist NYC Doesn't Need

Zoran Mamdani shocked everyone by winning the Democratic primary in June, beating Cuomo by 12 points. The 33-year-old DSA member's platform is pure socialism: rent freezes, free buses, and universal child care funded by a 2% wealth tax on million-dollar earners.

When you tax success, successful people leave. They move to Florida, Texas, Tennessee—anywhere that doesn't punish wealth creation. And they take their businesses, jobs, and tax revenue with them.

But the economics aren't even the worst part.

The Israel Problem

Mamdani repeatedly calls Israel's Gaza actions "genocide." When Fox News asked directly if Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish state, he refused to say yes. His answer: "I would not recognize any state's right to exist with a system of hierarchy on the basis of religion."

In a city with 1.3 million Jews—the largest Jewish population outside Israel—this should disqualify him immediately.

Mamdani's record:

  • Supports BDS movement against Israel
  • Defended "globalize the Intifada" phrase
  • Attended pro-Palestinian protests after October 7th
  • Refused to condemn Hamas as terrorist organization

ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt says Mamdani's rhetoric amounts to "explicit incitement to violence." Congressman Dan Goldman flatly states Mamdani is unfit to lead a city with 1.3 million Jews.

Andrew Cuomo Won't Go Away

After losing the primary 56% to 44%, Cuomo stayed in as an independent, creating his own vanity party called "Fight and Deliver." This isn't principle—it's ego.

Why Cuomo deserves no comeback:

Sexual Harassment: 13 women accused him of harassment including unwanted kissing, groping, and suggesting "strip poker" on government planes. Even Biden, Schumer, and Pelosi called for his resignation.

Nursing Home Cover-Up: Cuomo forced nursing homes to accept COVID-positive patients. His team reported 6,400 deaths. The real number: over 15,000. They undercounted by 50% to hide the disaster. He lied to Congress about it.

15,000 grandparents died. He covered it up. He lied. Now he thinks he deserves to be mayor?

Curtis Sliwa: The Republican Standing Firm

The 71-year-old Guardian Angels founder has fought for NYC since 1979. Despite massive pressure from Cuomo, the New York Post, and even some Trump allies to drop out, Sliwa refuses.

His response? "Absolutely no way. You can't bribe me. You can't lease me. And you can't rent me."

The five Republican county chairs back him: "Republicans should not have to clean up the mess Andrew Cuomo created."

The Math That Proves This Is Preventable

Latest Quinnipiac poll (October 9th):

  • Mamdani: 46%
  • Cuomo: 33%
  • Sliwa: 15%

Mamdani's winning, but he's under 50%. A majority don't want him—but that majority is split three ways.

An AARP poll tested two-way races: If Sliwa dropped, Mamdani's lead over Cuomo shrinks to 4 points. But here's what nobody discusses: If Cuomo dropped out, his 33% would largely go to Sliwa, giving the Republican a real shot.

That's the path to stopping socialism. But Cuomo won't take it.

What Happens When Mamdani Wins

Economic disaster: Wealthy flee. Tax revenue collapses. Housing shortage worsens.

Crime explosion: Progressive prosecutors, bail reform, violent criminals back on streets.

Migrant crisis: $100 million more for illegal immigrants while veterans sleep on streets.

Jewish community in danger: A mayor who won't condemn Hamas while anti-Semitic attacks rise.

National implications: Emboldens socialists everywhere. DSA recruits Mamdani clones for every major city.

What Needs to Happen Now

Early voting starts tomorrow, Friday, October 25th. Election day is Tuesday, November 4th.

Andrew Cuomo must drop out and endorse Curtis Sliwa. If he truly believes Mamdani threatens New York, he'll prove it by stepping aside. Otherwise, his warnings are just empty words propping up his failed comeback.

Republican voters must unite behind Sliwa. He's the legitimate nominee who's fought for NYC for 45 years.

Moderate Democrats and independents need reality: A vote for Cuomo throws your vote away. The only path to stopping socialism is unified opposition behind Sliwa.


Patriots, this is preventable. Zoran Mamdani shouldn't be mayor. His socialist economics would destroy prosperity. His Israel stance endangers 1.3 million Jews. His vision is high taxes, rising crime, and business exodus.

But mathematics don't lie. Sliwa can't overcome a three-way split with Cuomo polling 33% and refusing to budge.

These final 12 days matter. If you're a New Yorker, vote Curtis Sliwa. Tell everyone you know.

Cuomo's last act can save NYC from socialism or hand it over through selfishness. The choice is his. The consequences are ours.
