Bloomberg Endorses Cuomo in Surprising Mayoral Race Twist
Clear Facts
- Michael Bloomberg endorsed Andrew Cuomo for the 2025 New York City mayoral race, despite their past tensions.
- Bloomberg praised Cuomo’s management experience and government knowledge.
- Cuomo faces competition from socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani, who is gaining ground in the Democratic primary polls.
In a surprising political move, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has thrown his support behind Andrew Cuomo for the 2025 mayoral race. This endorsement comes despite a history of rumored tension between the two prominent figures during their overlapping tenures as New York City Mayor and New York Governor.
Bloomberg, who has transitioned from a Republican to an independent, and finally to a Democrat, expressed his confidence in Cuomo’s capabilities.
“In sizing up the field in the race for mayor, there is one candidate whose management experience and government know-how stand above the others: Andrew Cuomo,” Bloomberg stated.
The former mayor emphasized his concern for the city’s future, noting the struggles it has faced, particularly since the pandemic. Bloomberg’s endorsement highlights Cuomo’s experience as a key factor in his decision.
This development comes amidst a competitive political landscape. Current New York City Mayor Eric Adams, initially endorsed by Bloomberg, is running for reelection as an independent while maintaining his Democratic registration. Meanwhile, high-profile Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has endorsed socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani, who is gaining traction in the Democratic primary polls.
According to a recent internal poll, Cuomo leads Mamdani by a slim margin of just two points. The Democratic primary elections for New York City mayor are scheduled for June 24, setting the stage for a closely watched contest.

And everyone conveniently forgets that he should be in prison for his nursing home COVID fiasco.

I agree. He caused the death of many people. Beginning to think that New York folks don’t have the good sense that the good Lord gave a chicken.

Who cares what Bloomberg has to say. He is a wealthy self-serving individual like most in the Dem party. Keep Cuomo and his Cronies out of politics all together.
