NextImg:Mike Bloomberg endorses Andrew Cuomo in NYC mayoral race

Former Mayor Mike Bloomberg is endorsing Andrew Cuomo in the New York City Democratic primary, saying the ex-governor is best equipped to run the Big Apple.

“I care deeply about the future of our city, and since leaving office, it has been difficult to watch its struggles, especially since the pandemic,” the former-three-term mayor said Tuesday.

“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.”

The billionaire business mogul said he had differences with Cuomo when the two served as mayor and governor, respectively.

“But I also know his strengths as a leader and manager. Of all the candidates, Andrew has the skills our city needs to lead us forward,” Bloomberg said.

Bloomberg did not mention any of Cuomo’s rivals, particularly Democratic socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani.

But sources close to Bloomberg said he doesn’t want an anti-capitalist tax hiker and foe of Israel running City Hall.

He credited Cuomo with getting “big things done,’ citing the redevelopment of LaGuardia Airport, the opening of the 2nd Avenue Subway and creation of Moynihan Station — “All long-stalled projects that he jump-started and completed.”

“He has decades of experience navigating state and federal governments. He has governed as a pragmatist, focused on solving problems rather than engaging in ideological or partisan warfare,” Bloomberg said of Cuomo.

“The question before New Yorkers is not: Who is the perfect choice? No mayor is perfect. The question is: Who is the best choice? To me, that choice is clear: Andrew Cuomo.”
