Fresh off losing New York’s Democratic primary for mayor to Zohran Mamdani, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday ramped up his efforts to push the incumbent mayor, Eric Adams, out of the race.

Mr. Mamdani’s victory upended city politics and reverberated nationally. He relied on a memorable message, charisma and a strong ground game.

Jack Lew, Obama's former treasury secretary, criticized NYC mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani's plans to tax corporations and the wealthy, comparing them to populist policies that may not work.
