Former New York Government.
Cuomo, who is running for the Mayor of the most populous city in the country as an independent after being on top of the double -digit of Mammadani in the June Democratic Party Primary of June, argues that if the 33 -year -old Democratic Socialist State MP of Queens won in November, “New York city will become the capital of the country.”
The victory over Kuomo and nine other candidates in Mamdani, whose Democratic Mayer was sent to political shockwaves across the country, called for a decrying of sex work on running for the state Legislature in 2020 for the first time for the State Legislature.
And as a state assembly, Mammadani co-proposed bills to reduce the statewide sex work.

But he has rarely talked about the issue for the mayor during his 2025 runs.
In a campaign program on Sunday, it was asked that Criticism on his stance on reducing prostitution from Kuoomo and Holiday Mayor Eric Adams, who is also running as an independent candidate, because he wants to re -election, Mammadani said, “My focus on this campaign is a long time to create this city that every new yorker is safe, where they live a life where they live a life.

Pointing to those comments, Kuoomo said at a news conference on Monday that Mamdani was “asked yesterday if he would direct NYPD to stop prostitution from arresting prostitution. He said yes or not, but he suggested that he would simulate former Mayor Bill de Blasio.”
Cuomo, who has been a strong critic of D Blasio, a long-standing two-progressive New York City Mayor D Blasio, said prostitution arrests were taken during D Blasio’s tenure in the office.

Cumo claimed, “When he came to arrest prostitution, he would follow former Mayor Bill Day Blasio.” “If you listen to him, and you look at his polle, he is going to be D Blasio 2.0, and I believe this city needs that this is the last thing.”
Supporters who reduce prostitution argue that this step makes sexual workers susceptible to exploitation and violence. But studies show that in areas where prostitution is legal, crime and human trafficking increase.
New candidates enter the NYC mayorl race
Parts of New York City have seen the influx of sex workers since then. Kuoomo signed a law in early 2021, in which the idols were canceled against the idols for the purpose of prostitution.
When asked about that bill, the former Governor said, “The littering bill, I have to investigate. I don’t remember that bill clearly.”
But Cumo highlighted that first on Monday, he visited the Roosevelt Avenue Corridor in Queens, one of the areas that have seen a dramatic growth among sex workers.
“There were signs of prostitution on the road. I talked to the owners to store. They are very concerned about it. They feel that it is disastrous for their business, disastrous for their neighborhoods, it is a bad effect on children,” Cumo said.
Mamdani, who was born in Uganda and who would become the first Muslim and first millennium in New York City, if he wins the November election, Adams has also criticized prostitution.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, the mayor said, “I don’t know that in his Quran it has been said that it is okay for a woman to stay on the roads selling her body. I don’t know what he is reading.”
Mamdani increased to a primary victory for an energetic campaign, which focused a major focus on the strength and high cost of the city of New York. It was supported by the army and the top national progressive champion at a grassroots level of supporters, which included Rape. Alexandria Osacio-Coortage New York and Sen Burney Sanders of Warmont.
Mamdani used social media platforms including Tikokkok smart, as he attached low-proportion voters. He proposed to abolish the fare to ride the huge bus system of New York City, which offered Kuni (City University of New York) “tuition-free,” cold fare at the municipal residence, offered “free childcare” for children of 5 years and set up a grocery store-operated grocery store.
The latest elections indicate that Mamdani is a clear front-colon in a city where Democrats have surpassed Republicans to a great extent.
