A dissection of irrational Jewish voting patterns.
Imagine driving from New York to San Francisco. For three days, you stay on I-80, only getting off for gas and a bed. As you approach your destination, just north of the once beautiful city, you simply keep driving straight. Your family tells you that you have missed the exit and the one after it. You can’t change. You’ve been going straight for endless hours and you are simply on autopilot to keep doing the same until the road ends.
Zamdani received approximately 130,000–150,000 (roughly 30–33% of the Jewish vote), according to exit polls and analyses from the 2025 NYC mayoral election.
Hypothetical Switch
If all ~130k–150k of those Mamdani Jewish votes went to Cuomo instead: Mamdani’s total drops to ~964k–984k.
Cuomo’s total rises to ~1.037M–1.057M. A win.
