Socialist candidate Mamdani meets with NY Dems as they withhold endorsements

New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani met with prominent Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Representative Yvette Clarke, in Brooklyn to discuss issues affecting local communities. Despite Mamdani's recent primary win and support from several progressive Democrats, key party figures such as Jeffries, Clarke, Governor Kathy Hochul, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer have not yet offered their endorsements. The meeting focused on topics like the affordability crisis and the exodus of Black residents from the city, with Mamdani sharing his plans to address these challenges. While the discussions were described as meaningful and community-centered, both Jeffries and Clarke stopped short of endorsing Mamdani, citing the need for further conversation and understanding of his platform.
