Meet Zohran Mamdani: https://www.zohranfornyc.com/   He is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, and a current candidate for the Mayor of New York City. This election is significant because he managed to close the polling gap between him and Cuomo by a significant margin. He used to be behind Cuomo 30+ points in the polls and now is now behind less than 10% points in the most recent polls. Even Vaush thinks that this guy is a genuine socialist and not a social-democrat, as he wants to create more city and employee owned enterprises in NYC, such as and most notably, grocery stores.  If he actually wins this, it will be a huge victory for the socialist movement in America. A member of the DSA being the mayor of one of the most iconic and economically significant cities in the world? Eugene V. Debs would be so proud. But this is precisely why all of the centrist corporate wall street Dems, and have all endorsed Cuomo, despite him being shockingly bad due to his past sex abuse scandals and corruption. Cuomo is only popular because of his name recognition, and he is very well established in the Democratic Party's corrupt senior leadership, so the dinosaurs who make up that leadership don't want to see one of their chess pieces fall. For the centrist libs, maintaining their positions of authority, enriching themselves through corruption, and serving corporate interests is more important to them than serving the poor, which is why all of the big moneyed interests have donated to Cuomo's Fix the City Super PAC, including: Billionaires: Stavros Niarchos, Alex Blavatnik, Peter Schoenfeld, Henry Swieca, Bill Ackman, Barry Diller, John B. Hess, Matt Hulsizer, Kenneth Langone, William Lauder, Daniel Loeb, Deborah Simon, Alice Walton, Dan Loeb, Glenn Dubin, and Emma Bloomberg. Other high-profile donors: Billy Joel, Michael Kors, Stacey Bendet, Beth Dozoretz, Laurie Tisch, Antonio Weiss, Abby Levy, Jessica Seinfeld, Peggy Drexler, Jill Kargman, and Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel.  Corporations and Organizations: DoorDash Inc., Fisher Brothers Management Company, The Durst Organization, Halmar International, Lyft, Including RXR Acquisition Corp, Centerview Partners, Charter Communications, and SkyBridge Capital.
