#ZohranMamdani Has More Jewish Support Than You Think
Mamdani, similar to his progressive predecessors, enters office with powerful opposition. Jewish Democrats, split between Mamdani and Cuomo in both the Democratic primary and general election, will remain a crucial bellwether for the mayor, as he embarks on the left’s most ambitious executive project in generations. Once upon a time, the coalition that came together against Mamdani—the ultra-wealthy, pro-Israel forces, ideological moderates, older working-class Democrats, and Republicans—would have easily carried the political day in New York City. Now, as a new day dawns, they have been reduced to a loud minority.
