NEW YORK (AP) — New York City’s Jewish community — the largest in the United States — abounds with anxiety and friction a day ahead of an election that could give the city its first Muslim mayor.
On the eve of New York’s well-watched mayoral election, US president Donald Trump issued a threat to its voters: stop Zohran Mamdani or pay.
Zohran Mamdani needs inroads among Black voters who favored Andrew Cuomo, Latinos who swung to Trump and Jewish voters who may disagree over Israel.
President Donald Trump remarked on "60 Minutes" about potentially cutting federal funding to New York City if Zohran Mamdani won Tuesday's mayoral election.
Zohran Mamdani's focus on affordability concerns has energized many young voters around the country, who say he speaks to some of their most pressing economic concerns.
"Whether you personally like Andrew Cuomo or not, you really have no choice. You must vote for him, and hope he does a fantastic job," Trump wrote.
