Cuomo Admits He Really Needs Trump's Help
Briefly

Recent polling indicates that Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani maintains a significant lead over Andrew Cuomo in the New York City mayoral race. Cuomo is reportedly focusing on winning over conservative voters influenced by President Trump. At a fundraiser, Cuomo expressed confidence in diminishing support for Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa, asserting that Trump's backing would be aimed at stopping Mamdani. Additionally, Cuomo shared insights about his relationship with Trump, suggesting there might be opportunities for collaboration should he secure the mayoral position.
Cuomo suggested that many voters would look beyond Curtis Sliwa for a candidate to effectively challenge Mamdani, stating 'We can minimize (the Sliwa) vote, because he'll never be a serious candidate.'
Cuomo expressed confidence in his relationship with Trump, remarking that he believes Trump desires redemption in New York, indicating they could cooperate if he became mayor.
