Cuomo’s Orthodox Jewish support no match for [Islamic-socialist] Mamdani’s broad coalition, expert says.

“If the general election becomes a one-on-one matchup, voters who disliked Cuomo but also aren’t fully comfortable with Mamdani could be up for grabs,” Henry Olsen told JNS. Vita Fellig

(June 25, 2025 / JNS) Orthodox Jewish voters backed former New York governor Andrew Cuomo by a staggering 8-to-1 margin, but that wasn’t enough to stop anti-Israel state representative Zohran Mamdani from pulling off a decisive win in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor, according to political analyst Henry Olsen.

“What’s pretty clear is that Mamdani put together a very wide-ranging ethnic and class coalition, winning votes in Hispanic areas, winning votes in Asian areas, winning votes in moderate to high income areas in Manhattan and in Brooklyn,” Henry Olsen, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, told JNS.

“It was an across-the-board win,” Olsen said.

Cuomo’s strongest support came from the Orthodox Jewish community, but his inability to expand beyond that base ultimately cost him the race, according to Olsen.

This just proves NYC is finished. It can never again be a city of opportunity for those who work hard.

He carried the lib Jews

The maniac did

I think cuomo bundled some Latinos and blacks and blue collar whites

Nut job carried Asians of all stripes and non religious Jews

He openly calls for intifada and arresting Bibi

They are disgusting miserable elites at least by average American standards

Worshipping the Baal of secular humanism and resent western civ

When I lived in Manhattan 40 years ago it was different

Open borders and legal immigration from whack nations is why

They deserve each other

London and now New York governed by nuts

Watermelon:

Green (Islamofascist) on the outside

Red (Communist) on the inside.

No wonder the watermelon is the palestinian terrorists’ symbol.

Why do Jewish voters support people who want to murder them?

Because those “Jews” have internalized the external hate and are frankly suicidal. It’s called JSS (Jewish suicide syndrome), sort of like Stockholm syndrome. Often it is because they’ve knowingly or ignorantly traded their heritage of faith and moral teachings for secular “causes” that may sound nice and even good on their outsides but which are dangerous and even death cults in reality. Communism socialism progressivism you name it. All can come in beautiful but extremely deceptive packaging like peace, social justice, equity, inclusion.

The biggest problem JSS poses
Is that some of them work to pull, drag everybody else down either way them.

Orthodox Jews need to flee Manhattan en masse for the center of the USA.

Or at least rural PA. Make it not a swing state. They’d get along with the Amish.

Demographics is destiny. Today’s NYC has a million Asians and a million Muslims.

I have a feeling that we’re about to go back to the days of Al Sharpton and the antisemitic riots in Crown Heights.
