It's an interesting strategic dilemma. Being on the ticket for a party will get you a lot of votes just through brand recognition or unthinking loyalty, but sometimes the party brand can be a drag for particular candidates. You probably need to approach it on a case-by-case basis.

I think Mamdani has done the smartest thing, run in the election for the party you belong to, which Sanders wouldn't do. The main counter I can think of is Lieberman vs Lamont, and Lieberman obviously had some lingering good will in way I don't think Cuomo does.
