Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is poised to jump into the New York City mayoral race as soon as next month, threatening to roil an already unprecedented election that finds embattled Mayor Eric Adams (D) running for his political life.
Cuomo, who left office amid multiple controversies, has not confirmed he’s running for mayor. But the former governor has reportedly laid the groundwork for a bid as anticipation grows for him to make an announcement.
At least one early poll has shown him leading the pack of Democratic candidates — including Adams. Though there are still months to go before the June primary, Empire State Democrats are already bracing for one of the most tumultuous mayoral races the city has seen in years.
“Andrew Cuomo is obviously the 900-pound gorilla in this room,” said Democratic strategist Trip Yang. “He would start with a commanding lead built mostly on his high name recognition because he has served in statewide office here for over a decade.”

Why is Cuomo doing this? Because he can’t get a regular job.
The power brokers want Cuomo in but just remind everyone in New York City how white he is and he’s out of the running.
If he runs, it will be with Deep State’s insistence.
NYC has RCV for mayorals for a very good reason.
NYS needs to secure its elections before it’s too late.
Deep State appears to be retrenching in NYS...
If we’re so full of stupid, why does Deep State have to steal our elections, hmmmm?
Including Gotham’s.
I would suggest the reason is simple....... ego,. vanity
“NYC has RCV for mayorals for a very good reason.”
“RCV”????
Bad Person. Bad Manager. Not very smart. Never had a regular job. Never ran a business. Only a launching pad for a SCOTUS run.
But NYC will elect him in a landslide.
Any MAGA left in NYC, get out while you still can.
Let it burn.
all those elderly he murdered during covid in nursing homes are overjoyed
Andrew’s papa, Mario the Pious, couldn’t even get that win. At the NYC level, Koch beat him every time. That is despite Cuomo having one of the best campaign slogans ever,
“Vote for Cuomo, not the homo.”
He’s 67, he’s not ever going to be on the Supreme Court.
I think you are right. They are so smart that they never learn.
I would distinguish NY state from NY city. I.e., NYC is full of stupid.
Amen
RCV = ranked choice voting. See how smart these guys are? They know little abbreviations you don’t.
NYC And
Westchester
Rockland
Albany
Buffalo
Rochester
So, yes, NY is full of stupid by population if not land area.
The democrats know after seing the clown show of senators at the confirmation hearings that they are dead in 2028. They need to pull out everything they have.I bet Andrew Gillum is even reborn in FL. If they lose Chicago, NYC and half of CA the democrats will never recover.
About as good as you’re going to get in NYC.
If he wins, he’ll take it as a mandate to be as handsy as he wants to be.
Ciao, Bella!
But can he possibly win after COVID?
