Andrew Cuomo announced his candidacy for the New York City mayoral election, asserting he is the strongest candidate to beat Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani. In a campaign video, he criticized Mamdani for lacking real solutions despite having appealing slogans. Cuomo plans to remain in the race but will pledge to withdraw if he is not positioned as the leading challenger to Mamdani by early September. He emphasizes the need for experienced leadership in the city and portrays himself as the candidate with the necessary ideas and determination to lead.
Cuomo insisted he's the candidate best positioned to defeat Mamdani. The general election is in November and I am in it to win it.
My opponent Mr. Mamdani offers slick slogans but no real solutions, Cuomo said.
Cuomo will pledge to drop out of the race, if the polls show that he is not the highest-ranked challenger to Mamdani by early September.
You haven't given up on it and you deserve a mayor with the experience and ideas to make it happen again.
