Progressive NYC Mayor Endorses Hochul, Calling Their Alliance a Model for Democrats

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul gains a high-profile endorsement from NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who calls their cross‑wing collaboration a model for Democrats and touts universal childcare as a major achievement. The backing could energize Hochul’s re‑election bid, help blunt Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado’s challenge from the left, and complicate Republican opposition tied to Mamdani’s socialist positions in a general election.
