From Breitbart: Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) threatened he would “move to Florida” if socialist New York City (NYC) mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the election.
During a Hamptons breakfast on Saturday, Cuomo, who is running as an independent in NYC’s mayoral race, expressed that it was “all or nothing” in the NYC mayoral race, according to the New York Post. The breakfast was hosted at 75 Main, in Southampton.
“It’s all or nothing,” Cuomo stated. “We either win or even I will move to Florida. God forbid!”
During the event, Cuomo “took plenty of shots at Mamdani’s pie-in-the-sky proposals to freeze rents on stabilized apartments,” according to the outlet.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis apparently isn’t too excited about Cuomo coming to Florida.
DeSantis wrote in a post on X, “Don’t New York our Florida!”

However, Cuomo’s longtime spokesperson, Rich Azzopardi, said the former governor was only joking about moving to Florida.
“Governor Cuomo would never give up on New York. That said, the line underscored the stakes in the upcoming election and the risk of electing a dangerously inexperienced, hate-spewing 33-year-old socialist whose campaign consists of unrealistic bumper sticker slogans,” Azzopardi said.
