@BillAckman @CurtisSliwa So your big epiphany is that Curtis Sliwa is staying in the race just to keep his wife and friends on payroll for two more weeks?

Bill Ackman@BillAckman·
I spoke to someone who knows @CurtisSliwa and now I understand why he is staying in the race. The City has an 8 to 1 matching program for NYC donors. Sliwa got ~$5m of matching funds from the city for his campaign. According to my source, Sliwa’s wife, friends and others are on the campaign payroll, and he and they are enjoying living off the city taxpayers who are funding his race/lifestyle. He doesn’t want to end his campaign and have to return the funds. Follow the money. When I asked why he doesn’t care about NYC? my source said: ‘He doesn’t give a sh-t.’ Clearly, this is hearsay, but my source is extremely credible and a highly respected person, and he knows Sliwa well. Curtis, please correct the record if I got anything wrong. What personal or other related expenses is your campaign paying for? Is your wife and/or other family or friends on the campaign payroll or receiving any funding? Please clarify the record.

@andrewcuomo @ZohranKMamdani I disagree with a moderate amount of Mamdani’s platform, but Cuomo shows how out of touch he is again. A homeless mother affording $2,300/mo in Astoria Queens? I make roughly $90K annually, and under the 40× rule I can only qualify for $2,250. If I can’t, how could she?

Andrew Cuomo
Andrew Cuomo@andrewcuomo·
Somewhere last night in New York City, a single mother and her children slept at a homeless shelter because you, assemblyman @ZohranKMamdani are occupying her rent controlled apartment. You grew up rich and married an even wealthier woman. You’ve had weddings on 3 continents. You own property in LGTBQIA+ murderous Uganda. You make $142,000 a year plus stipends, and your wife works too, meaning you together likely make well over $200,000. No matter which way you cut it: Zohran Mamdani is a rich person. You are actually very rich. Yet you and your wife pay $2,300 a month, as you have bragged, for a nice apartment in Astoria. That should be housing for someone who needs it. We are in the middle of a historic affordability crisis. Millions of low income New Yorkers need this apartment and an apartment like it. Yet your apartment remains rented to rich people who don’t need it. Today, I am calling on you to move out immediately and give your affordable housing back to an unhoused family who need it. Leaders must show moral clarity. Time to move out.

On the subject of a rent freeze: Earlier this year, Zohran Mamdani was asked whether he personally needs one. Here's his reply. nyeditorialboard.substack.com/p/zohran-mamda…

@giantsny78 @RyanSchwach @YesWeKhan Khan however does have a decent shot in a head to head election. The Map created to protect Weprin’s incumbency banks on all the South Asian vote not being consolidated (Bengali, Guyanese, Sikh). In 2020 the Bengali and Guyanese candidate totaled to 50%.

Activist Mahtab Khan (@YesWeKhan) has filed to run in District 24 and primary Assemblymember David Weprin. Mamdani won AD24 by a little over 5%

@giantsny78 @RyanSchwach @YesWeKhan Not true. Weprin had no primary challenger in 2024. 2020 he won with a 50% of the vote versus Mahfuzul Islam and Albert Baldeo. Neither who would have run on Weprin’s behalf. That being said, I live in AD24 and it’s such a Gerrymandered district created to protect Weprin’s seat.
