New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has endorsed Lindsey Boylan in her City Council race, throwing his political weight behind the first woman to accuse former Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment.
The endorsement was announced Friday.
It came as the mayor, who vaulted from relative obscurity to become a national progressive star last year, has wasted little time to begin flexing his political muscle, testing whether his potent brand can bring about a leftward shift in New York’s political scene.
Boylan is running for an open seat in an April special election.
