I think it would take some exceptional political gymnastics for Hochul to have personally campaigned with him and then justify how his election must be annulled. She’ll just refuse all his plans that need state approval. The state has a lot of power to just try to make him fail in order to teach the people that only neoliberals can be trusted to lead.
The current governor is Cuomo’s old LT Gov who took the spot when he resigned…
trump can’t stop Mamdani, but between the Gov being Coumo’s buddy and the NY state Dem party being one of the worst in the country…
There’s a non-zero chance Mamdani wins and they try to just hand it to Cuomo on some bullshit.

Direct Federal fuckery is more likely.
