I spoke to Zohran Kwame Mamdani's field director Tascha van Auken about how the campaign managed tens of thousands of volunteers and built an unprecedented canvassing operation that knocked on doors more than 1.6 million times: cityandstateny.com/personality/20…

Adams declines to condemn Trump's threats against Mamdani when Kelly Mena asks, suggests it's a distraction: "They’re going to have a mic in my face: ‘are you gonna do this?' ‘are you gonna do this?' Let me tell you what I’m going to do: I’m going to deliver for New Yorkers.”

NEW from me: Two staffers for City Council Member Bob Holden, Phil Wong and Alicia Vaichunas, will face off in the general election as they vie for their boss’s seat. You’d think it’d be awkward in that office at the moment, but turns out, it’s far from it cityandstateny.com/politics/2025/…

A competitive but low drama City Council election this November? Sophie Krichevsky (she/her/hers) has the details on the weirdly amicable race in D30. "Both Vaichunas and Wong have pledged to hire the other to continue on the District 30 staff should they win in November." cityandstateny.com/politics/2025/…


Salgado, asst commish at NYC Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs posts for the 4th that “enemies of the church are preparing to elect an ultra socialist mayor with a faith totally contrary to ours” referring to Zohran Kwame Mamdani, who is Muslim. He calls Eric Adams “a great friend of believers.”
