Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday he’ll pack his bags and flee to Florida if he loses the NYC mayoral race to socialist Zohran Mamdani.
“It’s all or nothing. We either win or even I will move to Florida. God forbid!” Cuomo told business leaders and other honchos at a Hamptons breakfast hosted by supermarket mogul John Catsimatidis.
Really? The most Republican, conservative, shit-holeiest state of them all? Fine, go be with your true people.
That would be a win-win for New York.
And a drop in the bucket for Florida.
Good get the fuck out
hey i want to be your mayor but ill just fuken leave the whole state if that other guy wins
What a dedicated and loyal representative of the people!
I love this place so much, except if I lose then I hate it
Don’t threaten me with a good time
I’m Zohran Mamdani and I approve this message.
that’s one way to get support from meatball ron
That mentality is exactly what makes him so unfit for the job
Good election propaganda too. “If my opponent loses, he has so little faith in NYC that he’ll leave” or somethjng
Is this a promise? Can we hold him to it? Not that Florida wants him either…
I hereby sign the executive order that the US shall have a “Good times threat act”
whereby any politician threatening it’s majority voters with a good time if their candidate gets elected,
will face criminal charges if the politician in question does not follow through his or her threat.If you are going to prosecute politicians for not following through on promises, you are going to have an awful lot of work ahead of you…
What about Adam’s or Sliwa? Cuomo thinks less of the democratic candidate than he does of republican candidate or the guy who’s gotten caught taking bribes and is now a trump suck-up to avoid being prosecuted.
So what happens if incumbent Mayor Eric Adams is ahead in the polls and is a stronger candidate?
“I don’t want to be part of a suicide mission,” Cuomo said. “If Adams is a stronger candidate, I’m not going to be a spoiler and I’ll defer. I’m not going to be a reason that this assemblyman became mayor of the city of New York.”
So if Cuomo is ahead of Adams, will he ask Adams not to go on that “suicide mission?”
“I think everybody will say that to Eric Adams, because everybody is going to make your point, which is look at the math, right? You divide up the vote, you’re just making Mamdani the candidate and the mayor,” Cuomo said.

Luckily Adams doesn’t seem interested.
“We should never forget that these same polls had Andrew up 32 points, and he lost embarrassingly by 12 points. This is a campaign about results, not resumes. And on that, Mayor Adams wins,” Adams spokesperson Todd Shapiro said.
Not my vote to make, but I’d almost hope to see Zoran becomes mayor, just to see if he’s true to his word. But too many examples of how electing someone/something for the wrong reason back fires.
So instead Let’s just hope they make te right choice.
Stop, stop. I can only be so excited.
He’s gonna move out of a state where there is a bridge named after his dad? I doubt it. Call his bluff…
Florida can have him
Someone should put in a law that if a politician is going to threaten to move somewhere if X happens,
and X happens, then by law s/he is exiled to that place.
