Disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has formally announced he will run for mayor on a third-party ticket after losing to Zohran Mamdani in the Democratic primary. Mamdani, who is a Democratic Socialist, shocked the political establishment by receiving more votes than any other mayoral candidate in New York City primary election history. On Monday, Zohran Mamdani posted a link seeking donations under Cuomo’s announcement on X. Mamdani’s post quickly outpaced the number of likes and reshares on Cuomo’s original post. Current New York City Mayor Eric Adams is also running in November as an independent in what could be a five-way race.
