Andrew Kuomo says he is making a distance.
The former three-Term Governor, the Governor of New York, who was defeated by a double-point by Democratic Socialist Zoharan Mamdani at Democratic Mayorl Primary in New York City last month, announced on Monday that he would continue his general election as an independent candidate.
“Only 13% of New Yorkers voted in June primary. The general election is in November and I am to win it,” Cumo announced in a video posted on social media.
And Kuomo alleged that “My opponent, Mr. Mamdani Slik offers slogans but there is no real solution.”

Mamdani’s primary victory over Cumo and nine other candidates three weeks ago shook the Democratic Party, and promoted a 33 -year state assembly from Queens to Uganda to become the first Muslim mayor of the nation’s most populous city.

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.
Mamdani used social media platforms including Tikokkok smart, as he attached low-proportion voters. He proposed to abolish the rent to ride the huge bus system of New York City, which offered Kuni (City University of New York) “tuition-free,” cold fare at municipal house, offered “free childcare” for children of 5 years, and set up grocery stores operated by the government.
And thanks to the efforts of a huge ground -level army of volunteers, he rode a wave of support from small and progressive voters in the first place of Cumo, which was at the forefront.

“Until you are not living under a rock, you probably know that the Democratic primary did not go in the way I expected,” said the former three-term governor Kuoomo, who resigned from the office in 2021 among many scams.
Kuoomo, who is a gun for a political return, said “as my grandfather says, when you knock, learn lessons and lift yourself back and come back to the game. And that’s what I am going to do. The fight to save our city is not over.”
In a support program on Monday, Mammadani reacted to Kuomom’s step.
He said, “I welcome everyone in this race, and I am as confident that I am three weeks in advance in the primary night.”

,I think he is struggling to come up with Tuesday, “Maddani said,” We spent a whole campaign, it is being told that it was unavoidable to become the next mayor for Andrew Kuoomo, and he believed himself. ,
Mamdani also trolled the former governor on Monday, replying to a picture of Cumo, in which his campaign video was shot.
In the context of his own viral campaign video, Mammadani said, “We were making him a man on a street video with a man in Karhar. By next week, he will sink Eden Chai and Khaleet Al Nahal will eat.”
The announcement by Cuomo was not a big surprise.
While he accepted the victory of Mamdani in primary, Kuoomo left the door open for November run as an independent candidate, which election rules in New York State Permit.

And at the end of the previous month, Cuomo set a time limit for candidates who were already eligible to run as free to reject the independent ballot line.
But sources told Fox News at the time that Kuoomo had not yet committed to conduct an active general election campaign in summer and autumn.
In Deep Blue New York City, Democratic Primary Winner is largely favored to win the general election. If Mamdani wins in November, she will be the first Muslim and Millennial Mayor of New York City.
