He's just hoping that enough people vote for him that it'll split the vote and that Adams will win. They're liberals, they'd rather literal fascists win than leftists.
If the market doesn't agree with a democratic victory centrists won't abandon the market, they will abandon victory.
Even by running DNC is dumping their war chest on this fight. If Mamdani loses or fucks up, those are less funds in the DNC coffers and IMO draining those idiots of every cent is a valuable goal.
The Jill Stein approach then...
is any republican even campaigining, either one will try to give each other win, adams is clearly a republican.
No, I’m not that pessimistic. Their allegiance is to party loyalty, not an opposing political viewpoint like facism. The guy’s a true believer, and his intent isn’t to sabotage to Democratic Party but to reform it. I don’t agree with all of his positions, but I like him better than Cuomo right now. The real issue is that Cuomo isn’t a right-wing Nazi like the Far-Left want you to believe. Maintain your centricity and don’t get played into viewing things the way the media outlets and political parties want you to see them.
Clearly Cuomo's loyalty is not to party because if it was he wouldn't still be running. I also don't believe Cuomo believes in anything but himself and his own advantage and the advantage of his big donors. However I'm not saying Cuomo is a far right Nazi. I'm just saying he'd rather a far right Nazi win than a leftist. Though arguably that would imply...
However I'd like to ask you to keep the personal insults to a minimum.
This is the same Cuomo who appointed two republican judges as a f.u. to the Democratic party for pushing him out for his many crimes
hes only running because the DNC saw madami was running and gaining in popularity.
That's not how it played out in Buffalo NY in their last mayoral election. A socialist won the primary and the Democratic party launched a massive write-in campaign to keep their preferred liberal "Byron Brown" in power, to the point they were handing out stamps at voting locations so that they could be used to easily "write" him. They succeeded in keeping the socialist candidate out, and despite winning, their liberal candidate ended up resigning mid-term to take a cushy C-suite job instead.
