Mamdani claims former Governor Cuomo should be disqualified from the NYC mayoral race due to a possible conversation with President Trump. Mamdani insists this constitutes a disqualifying factor, noting Trump's involvement with three candidates in the race, one in direct contact and another he has helped legally. Both Trump and Cuomo’s representatives have denied any conversation between them. Mamdani previously defeated Cuomo in the Democratic primary, while Cuomo continues his independent candidacy. Mayor Eric Adams and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa are also in the race.
Mamdani stated, 'This is not just a shady backroom deal by a cynical politician; it is disqualifying,' emphasizing that any potential conversation between Trump and Cuomo should disqualify Cuomo from the race.
Mamdani described the dynamics of the mayoral race saying, 'The fact is, the president has three candidates in this race: one that he's directly been in touch with, another that he bailed out of legal trouble and now functionally controls, and the final one literally being a member of the same Republican Party.'
Mamdani, asserting his stance, remarked, 'Cuomo should be disqualified,' reflecting his belief regarding the integrity of the election process amid suggestion of a Trump-Cuomo connection.
