Seeking conservative votes, Cuomo admits winning will be 'very, very, very hard' if Sliwa stays in

[RandySF]

As he pleaded for support from conservative voters Friday, Andrew Cuomo acknowledged it will be “very, very, very hard” for him to win next month’s mayoral election as long as Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa stays in the race.

Cuomo, who’s campaigning as an independent in the Nov. 4 election and trailing Democratic front-runner Zohran Mamdani by double digits in the polls, made the comment during an appearance on talk show host Sid Rosenberg’s WABC radio show.

Rosenberg’s show has a largely conservative audience, and polls back up the idea that Cuomo’s path to victory would all but certainly require some support from Republicans, as Mamdani maintains a commanding grip on the Democratic electorate.

In that vein, Cuomo pleaded with Rosenberg’s listeners to vote for him instead of Sliwa, a somewhat surprising ask given Sliwa has shown no sign that he would drop out.

trying to encourage MAGA voters to vote for him over a nominated Democrat. My, oh my, how the mighty have fallen.

NYC right wing politics -- and its media -- are an incestuous and slimy bunch with people like Rosenberg, Sliwa, Giuliani, Pirro, Roger Stone, Bernie Kerik and many more, who move in Trump's slimy realm. Good to see Cuomo has truly found his rightful place, another Trump enabler.

Maybe he can get a show on WFAN, share the mic with Boomer Esiason.
