(The Center Square) — New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani is accusing former Gov. Andrew Cuomo of “conspiring” with President Donald Trump to rig the election in his favor.

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, the Queens assemblyman and self-described socialist mayoral candidate, pointed to a New York Times report claiming that Trump recently spoke on the phone with Cuomo and has been mulling over backing a candidate who has the best chance to beat Mamdani between Cuomo, incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa.
