- Supporters of Rudy Giuliani have surprisingly shifted their allegiance to back Andrew Cuomo in the New York City mayoral race.
- This move comes as a strategy to prevent Zohran Mamdani, who is identified as a socialist candidate, from winning the election.
- Andrew Cuomo, who is running as an independent, is now seen as a more favorable option by Giuliani’s allies compared to Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa.
- The endorsement highlights a significant political realignment, as Cuomo and Giuliani have historically been on opposing sides.
- This development suggests that Giuliani’s supporters believe Cuomo’s independent platform could best represent their interests in the city’s three-way race.
- The switch of support indicates a pragmatic approach to influencing the election outcome by prioritizing opposition to Mamdani over party loyalty.
