46% of New Yorkers would never vote for Mamdani, or the other candidates…
I know it’s fashionable in certain circles to sneer or cheer that a Muslim Communist is the Dem nominee for Mayor of New York City, but if you remember 9/11 or the BLM riots, you know that what happens in big cities doesn’t stay in them.
And no, this is not because New Yorkers are the worst people on earth. As I showed, Mamdani only won the votes of between 5% and 7% of New Yorkers. The primary had less than 30% turnout for Dems. Mamdani’s base turned out, but it also turned out that no one was enthusiastic about voting for Cuomo. And who can blame them.
Despite that, Cuomo is staying in. Mayor Eric Adams is still running. As is Curtis Sliwa on the Republican line. Between them they’ll elect Mamdani.
The polling is pretty clear.
46% of New Yorkers would never vote for Mamdani, but 51% would never vote for Adams and 39% would never vote for Cuomo.
Mamdani polls at 41%, Cuomo at 26%, Eric Adams at 16% and Sliwa at 9%.
A single candidate people could credibly vote for might beat Mamdani, but there’s no such candidate. Cuomo is a loathesome creature whom most people hate. Eric Adams isn’t likely to get much beyond the black and some Jewish votes. And Sliwa will get whatever is left of the conservative vote.
Now as we saw with previous polling, none of this matters. Turnout does. Mamdani’s leftist and Muslim base will turn out full bore. Will Cuomo and Adams voters? We already know the answer.
Yes, it’s easy to blame anyone willing to vote for Mamdani (and for that matter anyone staying home), but look at it from an apolitical standpoint (and most people are apolitical), the political establishment failed them, Cuomo and Adams are discredited candidates representing the past, while Mamdani is promising change. And some people will vote for change just to send a message to the establishment.
In this case that’s stupid and suicidal, but running against Mamdani is not enough. I called it “dead rat politics”. You can’t just run for office by pointing at your opponent and shouting he’s terrible. Even if it’s true. Nor can you ask voters to eat a dead rat because the alternative is worse.
Even if Adams and Cuomo work out some sort of deal (and that’s unlikely because neither care about anything beyond themselves), will voters turn out insufficient numbers to beat out the motivated Mamdani base?
New York’s establishment political system is falling to the far left because it locked out Republicans and anyone unwilling to reject radical leftist politics and now the far left is pushing even farther and it can’t offer an alternative to them.

So, is this their first gay Muhammadan Marxist Atheist? First time?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
He isn’t Atheist: he’s a Twelver shi’a. Like the Iranians. He’s not gay either – he’s married to a Syrian named Rama Duwaji
Mohammedan Marxist is bad enough
Walter Sieruk says
Before Zohran Mamdani had decided to run for the office of Mayor of NYC ,he had declared the one of his goals for Islam is to “Globalize the Intifada,” That’s one of hi reason why he refuses to condemn or denounce worldwide, international , Muslim terrorism. Mamdani, would not ,naturally, want to have the Muslims of the city who voted for him to become digested with him.
Related to this subject is one concept that many Americans just don’t understand that term used, which is “political Islam.” That term is nonsensical and redundant as well as unknown in the Islamic world.
First, that term being nonsensical one devout Muslim who, truly, proclaimed “Islam is Islam.”
Second. as for that term being redundant, has been well explained by none other Ayatollah Khomeini who declared” All Islam is politics.” [1]
[1] THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM by Ibn Warraq page 332
mgoldberg says
I think the issue is rather that people like Bill Warner recognized that Islam is political rather than purely religious and in fact that is why he puts forth the ideas of ‘political Islam’ to differentiate what a muslim would or might do in their homes- which is nobody’s particular business- but, when Islam rules that non muslims must adhere to their rules that therefore does make Islam, essentially political Islam. The point is that the west does not understand such a position even as the west had such a past with his Catholic heritage but that is gone by some 300 yrs now and with the rise of Islam, well… it needs to be understood.
Westman says
Yes, the West does not understand. One only needs to look at London and read the belated reporting of grooming gangs while there is a Muslim mayor in his 3rd term.
Now it’s NYC which will flirt with the oxymoron of Islam and communism while in the current declining spiral, the long term economic effect of Covid shutdown.
The snake charmer knows his snake – NYC does not know the snake or the tune.
Bob in NC says
True.
Political Islam is a theocracy, and theocracies ultimately result in disasters for the people… from the idolatry and apostasy of the Jews in the Old Testament, to the Salem Witch Trials in New England, to the Japanese under Emperor Hirohito, theocratic systems of government always turn into tyranny.
The only theocracy that will succeed will be when Christ will rule the nations in righteousness during the Millennium.
Walter Sieruk says
Zohran Mamdani who is the soon to be the next mayor New York City is obviously part in the insidiousness subversive movement which is known as the “Red /Green Alliance.”
Mamdani with and being part of that Marxist/Islamic alliance upon entering of office of Mayor is a recipe for a future disaster for NYC.
Walter Sieruk says
Zohran Mamdani with is awful plan to defund the police force is foolishness and folly, and most likely is disingenuous in a sinister Marxist sense.
Nevertheless ,One thing is for sure, which is if the police force is defunded then there in American cities and even towns there a drastic raise in crime especially heinous vile violent murderous crimes, as rapes and murderers along with rapes and the murder of the rapes victims. There would be more kidnappings and then along with that, many times, the torture and murder of the innocent people who had been kidnapped. Also more robberies and vicious violent assaults on peaceful people by hooligans and well as more vile sex assaults.
There would be a sharp and awful increase of wife and child abuse. In addition there would be a terrible large inflation of riots along with the arson, looting and vandalism that is always part of it.
There would even in non-riots be an increase in home and business break- in’s with looting vandalism and physical harm committed against the peaceful people by thugs.
There can be no doubt that many people who now want the police to be defunded would be first to complain if they would become a victims of hooligans.
Therefore, the police definitely be well funded and supported and never defunded.
Furthermore, that Communist ,Mandani , probably with his sinister scheme to defund the police, in might intentionally want to increase crime to ruin New York City in the Marxist hopes that that fantasy to such crime chaos and mayhem would spread to other cities across the United States.
As Karl Marx had written “If we can but weld our souls together, then with contempt shall I fling my glove in the world’s face, then I shall stride through the wreckage a creator !”
Walter Sieruk says
A message, very much ,need to be sent to those stealth jihad- minded Muslims politicians, as Zohran Mamdani, and other stealth jihadists who are running for government office in the USA who attempt to have Sharia law enacted in this country. They need to be reminded that the United States had something that is far better than Sharia law. It’s the US Constitution. This is America, not Saudi Arabia or Iran.
As the former US President, Theodore Roosevelt, had well-spoken when he declared in a speech “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is only room here for only hundred percent Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”
Walter Sieruk says
That Muslim politician Zohran Mamdani, who will soon the Mayor of NYC is a very strong of the the subject of the sly and subtle as well as disingenuous non-violent methods of the goal of advancement of Islam with its Sharia in the United States, by the means what is known and called the “Stealth jihad.” By this technique the Muslims who are the stealth jihadists are able to infiltrate the United States, and gradually, “inch by inch” and likewise “step by step.” Further, archive progression for their Islamic agenda for the advancement of Islam and to establish Sharia in the United States in place of the us Constitution.
To put this in another way, with America they would like to, if they can, enact Sharia as the law land instead of the US Constitution. Realistic or not, this is their objective.
To this end the stealth jihadists will and do use the Islamic of Taqiyya, which the modus operandi of speaks and printing lies that are very deceptive.
As explained in a more detail by a former Muslim and Hezbollah member who now a Christian .In his book he reveals” Lying , treachery and deception became Islam’s key tactics in conquering others. Those tactics are gathered in a doctrinal statement called “Taqiyya” which is one of the most effective arms for the spread of Islam. It means “Holy Deception” which means the use of every lie you can in order to spread Islam or to win the war against the enemy.” [1]
]1] Islam and the Son of God by Daniel Shayesteh , page 41.
Walter Sieruk says
That Muslim politician Zohran Mamdani, is one man of the entire scheme for the advancement of Islam with it’s Sharia. This sly and subtle , sometimes no so subtle, subversive infiltration in American and other Western governments is known as the stealth jihad. This Muslim scheme for achieving the goal of the Islamic agenda is as, many times, as subtly effective clever for the cause of Islamic power in nations of the West.
Furthermore, this Islamic method gradual infiltration in some ways is very similar to the instruction printed in the book entitled THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu. Which reads, “At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to opposes you.”
OLD GUY says
Stealth jihad brought to you by the open border muslim/islamic migration invasion of America.
Question for the experts how many muslims/islamic followers hold public office and what is the muslim percentage of the population in America.

muslims are better at stealing elections than democrats are!!!!

That’s what I’m afraid of. Don’t forget his hatred of Jews and preaching Jihad terror.

Everything in this guys platform is either unconstitutional or a violation of established United States laws. I dont care how broken the New York political System is NYC cannot vote their was in to an insurrection. Well, they can, but the the insurrection act of 1807 can be applied. They seem to be testing the will of the Federal Government as to how far it will go to enforce the US constitution and US laws. I think they are playing with fire, intentionally. And I think they are too dumb to realize what they are doing.
tgusa says
And the insurrection act applies to all the state and local officials that are in an insurrection against the US Constitution and the laws of the United States. Democrats would squeal that President Trump is going after his political adversaries but that would be completely untrue. He would be going after those in an insurrection against the US Constitution and the laws of the United States. And since it all is coming from one political party seditious conspiracy could be used against that party as well. Nobody ever accused the democrats of thinking things through. FAFO is also something that they have not considered.

“New York’s Broken Political System is Going to Elect Mamdani”
DEMOCRACY HAS BROUGHT HITLER AND ALL THE DICTATORS OF THE WORLD.
On 9-11-2001 Muslims destroy the Twin Tower of N.Y.
In 2025 after 24 yrs Muslims are back to destroy all N.Y. by using their candidate Mr. Mamdani.
“ZOHRAN MAMDANI”, it’s the first step that his ideology and beliefs that begin the invasion of the US from the inside.
How can the constitution allow someone from a different culture, religion, or base of his belief as a Muslim according to the Koran and sharia law is to kill anyone who doesn’t believe in Islam. The same as ISIS, BOCO HARAM, HAMAS, etcetera. And to run for mayor after 7 yrs and grant him American citizenship.
What is his qualification and what does he know about N.Y? The world invests more than 95% of their money into the NYSE.
If they were to hire someone of principal from a school, it would require more than 20 yrs of experience and a master’s degree
To have American citizenship is not enough to be a candidate
If the candidate is not a migrant from the western countries of Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand/
His parents and his family must be American citizens for at least 100 years. And his loyalty for the USA must come before Muslims, the Koran and sharia law.
To allow this candidate by to qualify for mayor is not a democracy, human rights or freedom of speech and religion.
It’s a crime against the millions of Americans who are living for more than 500 years.
And against the millions of troops who fight and die to keep the USA great and the leader of the world.
IN THE BOOK “MY STRUGGLE”, FOR HITLER, THE NAZIS CANNOT OWN IT, THEY CANNOT RUN FOR ANY POLITICAL POSITION.
THE BOOK OF THE KORAN AND SHARIA LAW IS WHAT “ZOHRAN MAMDANI “BELIEVES AND IS MORE DANGEROUS AND WORSE THAN THE BOOK “MY SRUGGLE” FOR HITLER.
HOW ZOHRAN MAMDANI CAN BE AN AMERICAN CITZEN AND HIS BELIEFS ARE AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION?

Ralph says
Many years ago, the Scoundrel-as-President Lyndon Johnson correctly stated that “Politics is the art of the possible”. I suggest that what is possible to save New York City is for Curtis Sliwa (whom I admire greatly for his incorruptibility and decades of meaningful service to NYC) and Mr. Cuomo (whom I detest for all the right reasons) fall gently onto their swords and bow out of the race, supporting Mayor Adams. Neither Sliwa nor Cuomo can win. Mayor Adams draws forth little respect from me, but he achieves favorable notoriety by being, in my opinion, relatively competent and totally mainstream, unlike the communist Mr. Mamdani. I do not doubt that Adams could defeat Mamdani handily in a race between the two of them.
Sometimes, it is necessary to vote for the “least worst “candidate if a candidate of the best qualifications is not on the ticket.
