Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a video released Monday that he will run an independent campaign for New York City mayor, weeks after losing the Democratic primary to Zohran Mamdani.
Yes, Dems have to get flushed, but other than that, this is fantastic news, this is another hubristic blunder by narcissistic political demagogues.
This will guarantee some level of split vote from the people that were going to vote for Adams again or some Republican challenger, whoever that was going to be. And there will be a lot of brainwashed median voters who have no clue what’s going on just hear the facebook warnings that Mamdani is going to enact Turbo Gay Muslim Socialism that will force everyone to stand in breadlines to get their gay muslim rations.
Turnout is ridiculously low for the general election because everyone just assumes the Democrat will win. I’m not sure taking votes from Adams even matters. How many people are actually motivated to turn out for fucking Cuomo or the incredibly unpopular current mayor, in an election that famously has low turn out?
The most likely effect Cuomo will have imo is spooking people to turn out for Mamdani. I’m pretty sure his entering the race as a third party candidate will turn out a lot of young people to vote against him and almost no one to vote for him.
In this case there’s a better Dem to vote for. But yes, if the option is a Republican or a Democrat, I will 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000% vote blue no matter who. I’ve seen enough treason from Republicans to know to default blue if it’s blue or red.
Fuck Cuomo and honestly fuck the Democratic leadership to and fuck Democrats in general.
Blue no matter who right? You bunch of hypocritical assholes on par with Republicans.

Pretty sure that it’s gonna be perennial loser and insanely racist vigilante Curtis Sliwa again.
Either of my cats stand a better chance of becoming mayor of New York than that infected scrotum.

There’s only one Dem to vote for in this race, and it ain’t Cuomo
Sure but tell that to the Democratic leadership that refuses to endorse or support Mamdani.
Careful now, remember both sides are NOT the same!

They aren’t.
And only an idiot would say so unironically after everything we’ve seen.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of idiots on Lemmy.
