Bronx Democrats endorse Mamdani for mayor, despite Cuomo’s Bronx popularity

The Bronx Democratic party endorsed Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic socialist candidate for NYC Mayor, during a press conference at Lou Gehrig Plaza on Tuesday.

Voting data from the mayoral primaries suggests that the assembly member from Queens will need the institutional support and perhaps more in November if he wants to sway Bronx voters away from former Gov. Andrew Cuomo who won the borough by 18 percentage points in the June Democratic primary.
