The guy’s a creep, we all know that. But at least he gave an appropriate and elegant concession speech. Showing sore losers (Republicans) how it’s done. Now he can go away.
New York City mayoral election live updates: Andrew Cuomo concedes race to Zohran Mamdani as primary moves to ranked choice count
There are 11 candidates on the ballot in the Democratic race, but no one is on track to secure a majority in the first round of the ranked choice election.
He should have spent money on therapy and sincerely apologized for his reprehensible behavior while in office. I supported him unequivocally for his covid response however it was a bridge too far with the abuse allegations
Abusing the limits of his authority was an intentional choice, one he made fully cognizant that it was self-serving. Can’t think of a therapeutic solution for that. Your prerogative to view fudging number of deaths a stretch. Evidence was presented to substantiate. But thanks for your input.
Hopefully, the Dem Establishment will not go to war against Mamdani and instead see this as a positive - there is energy in the left coalition. There is a message that appeals to men. You don’t need to pay consultants millions for dumb advice. You just need to embrace progressive economic populism.
The people who still consider Bill Clinton as a leader will fight tooth and nail to defeat Mamdani. They'd way more afraid of a progressive winning than they are a democrat
Possibly, but given the pasting he has gotten tonight, I would suspect that some of the Democrats who supported him for this election, will evaporate for another election.
“We’re gonna look. We’re gonna make some decisions.” - he’s talking about running a spoiler campaign isn’t he. Also he sounded like Trump saying that. Ugh.
I just want normalcy again and elected leaders who will put their heads down and get to work rather being tangled up in sexual allegations and criminal schemes.
Accepting reality in an election by a loser is a rarity in this sad, new world we are forced to live in. Props to Cuomo for conceding. We won’t see this behavior again for at least a decade.
'Don't say a word to me, Sidney, don't say a f***in word to me. I'll get up and I'll bury this telephone in your head.
'You and that other dummy better start getting more personally involved in your work, or I'm gonna stab you through the heart with a f***in' pencil. Do you understand me?'

I live in Canada and knew Mamdani would win!
Get on board
The people are driving now 👏👏

They'll either try to topple Mamdani or marginalize him.
He's going to run as an indy in November.
Dems want to hurt anyone to the left of G.W. Bush far more than they want to oppose Republicans. Blue is just a shade of red.
Americans are tired of your stale politics.
I hope the trend continues and people see through the bullshit at the voting booth!
Don’t Cuomo for me Ame~rica 🎶
The truth is
I never felt you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Do keep your distance
Symbolism.

Cuomo did not speak Mamdani's name.
Asshat.
Dems have no idea because they don't care about anything but line go up.
I could ask ChatGPT, Google, Reddit, but I don’t want to hear it from them. I want to know what Bluesky has to say.
