New York City Public Advocate Candidate and Bronx Conservative Party Vice Chairman Gonzalo Duran held a press conference in the Bronx in which he warned attendees about what he felt was a “rising tide of socialism” in New York City and the threats he believes this may pose on Saturday, Aug. 2.
Duran, who describes himself as a moderate conservative, said he believes that socialism and socialist policies could negatively impact the future of the Bronx and New York City as a whole. This press conference was largely meant to criticize the policies of Democratic Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani, who describes himself as a Democratic Socialist.
