Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday publicly stuck a pin into left-leaning City Council Member Chi Ossé’s ballooning primary campaign against House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, saying it is “not the time” to bring such a challenge.
Mamdani, a democratic socialist, made the comments during a Nov. 19 interview on PIX11 two days after Ossé, a recently joined member of the Democratic Socialists of America, filed paperwork to run against Jeffries on Monday.
