To have any hope of stopping the looming Zohran Mamdani catastrophe, New Yorkers need to get to the voting booth and cast their ballots against him.
The situation couldn’t be more dire: Mamdani’s promises — free buses and child care, no rent hikes, etc. — and charm have won him a commanding lead in the polls.
Fortunately, that edge is narrowing dramatically in final days: A Suffolk University survey finds he’s now just 10 points ahead of second-place contender Andrew Cuomo, down from a 20-point lead last month.
Plus, the over-54 crowd — which polls suggest favors Cuomo — turned out big for early voting this past weekend, boosting his prospects further.
Mamdani’s core strength — Democratic Socialist activists and the folks they can manage to bring in — was vital to his victory in the June primary, but is less of an advantage the higher overall turnout gets.
If enough sensible New Yorkers cast their ballots, they can prevent a victory by the antisemitic socialist and head off disaster for Gotham.
New Yorkers, it seems, are starting to wake up to the Mamdani threat.
They know turning the city into a socialist haven would spell disaster.
That the punitive tax hikes he’s envisioning would send the city’s tax base fleeing, triggering a major fiscal crisis.
That businesses will skedaddle, taking jobs, tax revenue and economic activity with them.
They know his rent freeze will destroy much of the city’s housing stock, leaving apartments in shabby shape and shutting many low-income tenants out of the market altogether.
New Yorkers understand that his “free” buses (assuming he can find the money for them) will be packed to the gills, and/or turned into rolling homeless shelters — even as the subways are starved for riders and fare revenue.

Mandamus hates the America we know. It’s up to New Yorkers to vote the lesser of the evils.
“Vote for Cuomo!”

What if NYC isn’t as important as New Yorkers act like it is?
