New Kings Democrats Endorse Zohran Mamdani for NYC Mayor in General Election
New Kings Democrats members have endorsed Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor in the 2025 general election!
Typically NKD doesn’t make endorsements in the general election — as a Democratic club we don't need to take a vote to support Democrats against Republicans. But the circumstances of this election are unusual: There are two former Democrats running as independents, and our primary endorsement of Zohran was as part of our first ever multi-candidate endorsement, so it makes sense to clarify who we're supporting in the general.

- UPDATE* Mayoral endorsement vote. Normally we don't do endorsement votes for the general election — as a Democratic club we don't need to take a vote to support Dems against Republicans. But the circumstances of this election are unusual: there are two former Democrats running as independents, and our initial endorsement of Zohran was as part of a multi-candidate endorsement, so it makes sense to take a vote to clarify who we're supporting in the general.
We'll also have breakout groups for working on some of these issues. RSVP here, and we'll see you on 7/24!
