As a native NYer and a Jew I find it ovensive when people think Jews are a monolith and will all vote the same way. Every Jew I know that voted in the primaries or live outside NY but shared their thoughts support Madani. Even the ones that are in the upper middle class and upper class. As for the Jews I know and grew up with, they mostly approve of progressive ideas.

Not a New Yorker, but an upper middle class Jew. Politically, I’m a little closer to Brad Lander, but I’ll happily vote for candidates like Mamdani all day, everyday. Voters want candidates have fundamental beliefs, not poll tested shapeshifters. Give me someone I agree with 70%, but who will believe the same things next year. I don’t want candidates I agree with 100%, but who will fold like a cheap suit when challenged.
