NextImg:Mamdani’s maddening win: Letters to the Editor — June 28, 2025

The Issue: Zohran Mamdani winning New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary.

Congratulations, Democrats: You gave your nomination for mayor to a hateful, authoritarian, antisemitic candidate (“Mam’a Mia, NYC!” June 25).

You’re willing to ruin the city’s economy and make the streets, schools, subways and buses unsafe because of your contempt for people who are not like you. And then you’ll all go running to Florida and other free states, leaving those who stay to suffer the consequences of Zohran Mamdani.

As a native New Yorker who still loves the city, I am deeply worried about its future.

Laurel, Md.

An openly antisemitic extremist is the Democratic candidate for mayor. This is happening in the same city hosting a “Summer of Reflection” honoring Anne Frank. The irony is sickening.

Since Oct. 7, when Hamas slaughtered over 1,000 Jews, antisemitism hasn’t just returned — it’s been mainstreamed. Jews have been firebombed, gunned down, harassed and now this.

We hold up Anne Frank’s diary in one hand while voting for the hate that tried to silence her. Wake up, New York.

Samuel Franco

Manhattan

There is no question that Mamdani’s victory will split the Democratic Party. He is so far left, there is no way that middle-of-the-road Dems can vote for this man or his policies. This might just help the Republicans if they play it right.

New York, and for that matter the nation, are in serious disarray. How can anyone vote for this radical?

Bob Robustelli

Stamford, Conn.

You New Yorkers outdid yourselves this time.

You can’t wait to get this moron, who promised you free everything, into office.

Where do you think he’s going to get the money? By taxing the rich? They’re already overtaxed — they will just move, and take their taxes with them, then you astute New Yorkers will see your taxes go way up and wonder what happened.

Good luck finding a place to live when landlords kick you out because they can’t afford tenants to pay zilch in rent, or aren’t able to raise rent to cover their taxes and other services they supply. This will be fun to watch.

Peter Sulzicki

Stratford, Conn.

With the rise of a socialist mayoral candidate who has a good shot at winning the election, it would be nice to see the other candidates put the city first, rather than themselves. It would be great if they could put aside their differences, put the people first and back out of running to support the candidate who has the best chance of beating Zohran.

This has become so much bigger than just an election; it is truly an opportunity to work collaboratively to defeat someone who has the ability to destroy our city.

Give Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa jobs in Mayor Eric Adams’ team. Some differing options within the team would be healthy. Show that bipartisanship can work.

Paul Facella

Long Beach, Calif.

What is all the hoopla about the antisemitic socialist winning the Democratic primary?

I believe the people didn’t want a disgraced governor winning, so they voted against him. The true colors of New York City will come out when the election is held in November.

If they vote for the socialists, you can kiss the city goodbye.

Ted Pilchik

Lake Worth, Fla.

Believe it or not, I still have faith in the people of New York City. Come the general election, they will not elect someone who will defund the police and bankrupt the city.

Mamdani could have tried to do the things he’s promising to do while in the Assembly.

Some words of wisdom from the late Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.”

Stephen Colasacco

The Bronx

Congratulations on your likely new mayor: An antisemitic socialist who became American only seven years ago.

I suggest a countrywide fundraiser to pay for a 100-foot-high electric fence that surrounds the five boroughs. Let New Yorkers live with their elected scum with no escape.
