Governor Kathy Hochul will campaign in Brooklyn on Friday with Mayor Zohran Mamdani of New York City, less than two weeks before the upcoming election. This marks the first time Mamdani has openly campaigned for Hochul as she faces a challenge from Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman on November 3. Mamdani previously supported Hochul during his successful mayoral primary last year and has released ads criticizing Blakeman while praising Hochul's universal childcare initiatives, which secured roughly $2 billion for New York City. However, public appearances by Mamdani with Hochul have not always gone smoothly in the past.
Mamdani had to run onto the stage at a campaign event of his own last year when the governor faced “tax the rich” chants from his lefty base.
