“The world is watching. Polls are open till 9 pm. GET OUT THE VOTE! Do not rank Cuomo and rank ZOHRAN no. 1. Make NY safe and affordable for all,” Emily Ratajkowski stated.
It is worth noting here that Zohran Mamdani’s progressive campaign has focused on freezing rents, providing universal childcare and free buses, and taxing the wealthy to fund social services.
His platform has drawn endorsements from Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Senator Bernie Sanders, and New York’s Working Families Party.
