The United Federation of Teachers' delegate assembly has voted to endorse Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayor's race.

Political upstart Zohran Mamdani secured another key endorsement Wednesday, earning the support of the United Federation of Teachers, New York City’s most powerful teachers’ union, a day after the president of the United States threatened to overtake the five boroughs should the 33-year-old be elected mayor.

New York commercial real estate developers have been trying to come to grips with the fact that Zohran Mamdani will likely be the next Mayor after upsetting former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. As of now, all they can do is urge caution, as some of his policies, if implemented, could cause unease for developers and landlords.
