🔮 The most competitive races for Congress are in swing suburban and upstate districts, while statewide ballots will include elections for governor, attorney general and comptroller.
🔮 Democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani remains popular, backed by a group of largely younger voters who lean left and are energized around an anti-capitalist message of taxing the rich.
🔮 New York is again expected to play a pivotal role in determining which party takes control of the House of Representatives — four years after the GOP’s four-seat pickup turned the tide in 2022.
🔮 The law exempts restaurants from the green prohibition, so wok stir-fry cooking on gas stoves will continue in Chinese eateries.
🔮 Gov. Kathy Hochul will raise New Yorkers’ taxes to fulfill Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s socialist agenda if she’s re-elected next week, her GOP opponent Bruce Blakeman warned.
🔮 A spokesperson for the Justice Department said, “The Department takes allegations of antisemitism seriously and is committed to enforcing federal civil rights laws that protect students from discrimination.” The city DOE and Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
🔮 “New York needs an attorney general who will put public safety over politics and make sure New York State is one of the most prosperous, best places to live in the country,” Teixeira added.
🔮 The Transport Workers Union of America, whose local members include roughly 40,000 city subway and bus workers toiling under an MTA contract that lapsed in May, began airing the scathing spots Friday, a day before early voting opened
🔮 Critics – including President Trump — immediately called for her to step away, saying she was too political, biased and unethical to fairly investigate the case. Norman Siegel, a longtime civil rights lawyer, said James is doing the right thing, adding that her taking the case would be like a police commissioner commenting on police misconduct cases before a probe is finished.
🔮 The folky tunes of an extremely rare piano will once again sound in Manhattan Friday — nearly a century after Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia banned the instruments from the city streets.
