While Zohran Mamdani leads Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s endorsement slate for the NYC mayoral primary, AOC’s support extends to a broader range of progressive candidates. Her ranked choices include City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams, City Comptroller Brad Lander, former Comptroller Scott Stringer, and Brooklyn state Senator Zellnor Myrie. Each of these candidates brings a unique perspective and set of priorities to the race. Adrienne Adams, as City Council Speaker, has a proven track record of navigating the complexities of city government. Brad Lander has focused on issues of economic inequality and corporate accountability. Scott Stringer, despite facing challenges, offers extensive experience in city finance. Zellnor Myrie has been a vocal advocate for criminal justice reform and community empowerment. AOC’s endorsement of these diverse candidates reflects a strategic effort to unite various factions within the progressive movement and maximize their collective impact. Many of these candidates also appear on the Working Families Party slate, further highlighting the unified front against what they see as a potential return to the policies of the past with former Governor Cuomo.
