FRM NEW YORK POST: Socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani was chased out of Lower Manhattan by a serial City Hall gadfly who slammed him as an “antisemite” — and got into a shoving match with the politician’s staffer.
The enraged protester, identified by sources as Raul Rivera, 55, of the Bronx, followed Mamdani as the pol was ushered by security into his waiting SUV, video of the encounter shows.
Rivera — who was arrested in June for allegedly biting a Mamdani campaign volunteer — shouted and cursed as Mamdani ignored him and climbed into the vehicle, the footage shows.
Mamdani had been in Foley Square for a protest where he and other lefty pols and activists stood in support of state Attorney General Letitia James as she faces federal charges of bank fraud and making a false statement to a financial institution.
