New York Gov. Hochul Endorses Mamdani for Mayor of New York City

HeadlineSep 15, 2025

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has endorsed Zohran Mamdani for mayor of New York City. Mamdani won the Democratic primary in June, but many establishment Democrats have yet to endorse Mamdani, who identifies as a democratic socialist. Hochul wrote online on Sunday, “New York City deserves a mayor who will stand up to Donald Trump and make life more affordable for New Yorkers. That’s Zohran Mamdani.”
