I’m a senior, liberal, civil rights era democrat. Give me someone who shows me he understands and will fight for people and believes in them over a practiced pol with questionable ethics (Cuomo, Adams) any day.

People used to call Obama too inexperienced and a socialist, too. But he got us Obamacare (which I still proudly call it, to give him his due) and most Trump supporters are terrified of having it taken away from them. There’s a reason I told the DNC months ago that I wasn’t donating until they got their s**t together. We don't need anyone past retirement age leading the country. Let younger generations lead, they are the ones who really have to live with the consequences.

Same here. So tired of the recycled politicians. Great to have new generations believe in our future and acting on it.

So well put. NYC voter here. And though Mamdani may describe himself as a “democratic socialist,” his actual policy proposals are hardly revolutionary. Will NYC crumble if some buses are free? If the city brings groceries to food desserts?
