Orthodox bizman Dov Bleich writes about meeting with Mamdani:"I have no reason to believe that Zohran Mamdani is antisemitic or remotely close to that. We disagreed, sometimes even sharply, on issues like Israel and policy, but disagreement is not hatred."

I have no reason to believe that Zohran Mamdani is antisemitic or remotely close to that. But I learned that we must argue better. Respectfully, and truthfully, without demonizing the other side.

Some new intel in here: Mamdani is likely to receive an endorsement from a Satmar Hasidic faction in Brooklyn representing a sizable constituency, according to a person familiar with the matter, following his recent outreach to the community.

New polling and early voting data show a tightening New York City mayoral race, as Mamdani faces scrutiny over his allies, rhetoric on Israel and strained ties with Jewish voters
ANALYSIS | Even as Zohran Mamdani remains the front-runner, some emerging signs indicate that his momentum is flagging in the final stretch of the race — underscoring potential vulnerabilities for the democratic socialist. More from @matthewkassel: https://t.co/Ky8aadeKXv

A councilmember blowing up a deal and killing 15,000 homes one week before people vote on whether councilmembers should be able to unilaterally kill housing projects, fun idea
NEW: .@CMJulieWon calls out Con Ed, saying the utility is pulling back on a commitment to pay for a connected waterfront in LIC. She says it will "tank" the massive OneLIC project, which is coming before (at least) council committee votes on Wednesday.

It's White vs white for the future of DC
New: The first serious primary challenge to Eleanor Holmes Norton is shaping up to be a Robert White v. Brooke Pinto slugfest. Is the city looking for a moderate who can negotiate with Congress on crime? Or does it need a native Washingtonian who’s more willing to throw bombs?

I voted YES on all 6 ballot proposals. I support 2-5 and encourage other New Yorkers to vote for them as well, so that we can build more housing and stop conservative councilmembers like Vickie Paladino and Darlene Mealy from blocking developments in their districts.

i think people trying to make auntiegate a thing should step back and think about what this line of questioning is trying to prove
Zohran Mamdani is pressed on La Mega Radio if he lied when he said his aunt stopped taking the subway after the Sept. 11 attacks. Mamdani said: "It's not a lie. My father's cousin is my aunt." He said that was how he referred to her growing up.

Andy Cohen’s show opens with him saying they are having Andrew Cuomo on and his co-host saying “Ew.” “I know,” Andy says, then adds that he has been trying to get Mamdani on the show.

NEW: An NYPD camera points directly into their bedroom. They’re suing the city over it. It’s the first suit to take on the NYPD’s massive surveillance network, the largest in the world, that police use to track and profile millions of New Yorkers every day

The NYPD’s little-noted citywide surveillance system draws on a vast network of public and private cameras.

We don't really have them in Caucasian Judaism but I did have a lady my mom told me was effectively my godmother who I could call aunt... She was just someone from my dad's work and I admired her greatly.

You all never heard of aunties????
Lies, and the lying liars who tell them #NeverForget when @ZohranKMamdani said his “aunt” was afraid to wear her hijab on the subways after 9/11 ...it was actually his dad’s cousin https://t.co/aW8WrfC3KY His only living aunt does not wear a hijab — and lived in Tanzania on 9/11

As @Jacob_Kaye_ said: the highest early voting hotspots in Queens are mainly either Mamdani or Sliwa strongholds.
Queens' early voting hotspots so far – Council District 22, home to Mamdani's base, and District 19, a Republican stronghold in the borough. That doesn't appear to bode well for Cuomo.
