Bloomberg Television· 2025-08-05 15:58
Election Dynamics - The under 30 demographic showed tremendous voter turnout, energized by anti-Trump sentiment, socialism, income equality, and the situation in Gaza [1][7] - Assemblyman Mamdani's success in the primary was due to an aberration in turnout, specifically the under 30 voters connecting with him on social media [7][8] - The general election will involve a much larger and different universe of voters compared to the primary [9] - A key strategy involves the stronger candidate going one-on-one against Mamdani in September, with others deferring [6] - Mid-September is seen as a "drop dead date" for candidates to winnow down the field [22] Policy and Public Safety - Assemblyman Mamdani is viewed as a threat due to his anti-police stance, calls for defunding the police, and characterization of the police as wicked, corrupt, and racist [4][5] - Public safety is considered job one, and crime is up overall, making it a major concern [11][12] - There are historic issues with recruiting and retaining police officers, with attrition rates being very high [12][13] - Starting salaries for police officers are around $60,000, and there's a call for increasing salaries and offering retention bonuses [14] Economic Concerns - There is concern that electing a socialist who is anti-police will bankrupt New York City and drive businesses away [19][20] - The under 30's concerns extend beyond affordability to overall economic inequality and a desire for a socialist society [30]
