First results in New York City Democratic Primary
cross-posted from: https://hexbear.net/post/5366823
Voters in the largest city in America are choosing a Democratic nominee for mayor via ranked-choice voting. The crowded field is led by former governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned from the state’s top office four years ago following sexual harassment allegations; state Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani, who snagged key endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York); Comptroller Brad Lander, who made headlines when he was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an immigration hearing last week; and City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams.
This is a ranked-choice primary – only first-choice votes will be tabulated on election night. Final vote calculations will be released July 1 and updated weekly until all ballots are counted. Republican Curtis Sliwa is uncontested in his primary.

Cuomo gave up
He may still try to run as independent by the way

Cuomo’s already congratulated Mamdani.
Ayyyyyyyy Ofc Cuomo would get Staten Islan lmao
But what the Hell is the Bronx's problem?
Good lord, the percentage who voted is ridiculously low.
Edit: I somewhat take that back after seeing current numbers.
