NY Dem chairman refuses to endorse party’s mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani

New York Democratic City’s candidate, Zahran Mamdani, lost the support of the leader of the State Party for a long time, despite his support for New York Cathy Hochol.

Jay Jacobs, head of the New York Democratic Committee (NYSDC), announced this week that he will not support Mamdani for the mayor despite the choice of democratic democratic democratic voters as a party candidate.

“Mr. Mamdani agrees that the biggest problem in America is the continuous growth of varying income in our nation,” Jacobs said in a statement of the epithelium. “On how to address it – we are essentially disagreed.”

The Hill reported that the Nysdc leader said he does not agree to Mamdani’s position on Israel.

Mamdani was an audio critic of Israel’s actions throughout the war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza. His position on this issue has become a major topic of the campaign cycle, especially when he refused to condemn the phrase “globalization of the uprising”, which some see as an invitation to violence against the Jews. Since then, Mamdani has distanced from the phrase, saying that he will support his supporters from his use.

While Mamdani did not support the mayor, Jacobs rejected the “fear” surrounding the self -described socialist campaign as a “excessive reaction.”

It is still unclear how the loss of Jacobs’s support for Mamdani’s campaign will affect.

However, it can have an effect on Jacobs’s position as a party leader. According to Politico, Jacobs said he would resign from his position if Hochul is asking for this.

“If the ruler must ask any chair of the state to resign, he must resign,” Jacobs told Politico.

Hochol announced her support for Mamdani in an opinion article in the New York Times on September 14.

She shared an article on X and Captioned The Post, “New York City deserves a mayor who will stand in the face of Donald Trump and make life more affordable for the New York residents. This is [Zohran Mamdani]”

A recent survey of the University of Koinibiac Mamdani showed 45 % support among the potential New York City voters. Former New York Governor Andrew Como followed by 23 %, Cortis Slawa, co -founder of the Guardian Angeles newspaper, was 15 %, and the New York City mayor Eric Adams by 12 %. Cuomo and Adams work as independent, while Sliwa works as a Republican.
