NYC Jewish voters ready to rally for Andrew Cuomo for mayor, advocates say: Eric Adams ‘is toast’

Many mainstream and conservative Jews are ready to rally around Andrew Cuomo if he runs for mayor, prominent Jewish activists told The Post.
“Cuomo is a moderate with a deep history with the Jewish community and a long record of fighting for issues we care about — combating antisemitism and strong support of Israel,” a source said — just days after embattled Mayor Eric Adams appeared in Manhattan court Friday on sweeping corruption charges.
“The Jewish community is very anxious for Cuomo to jump into the race. A lot of us will jump in for him,” said Jewish organizer who requested anonymity, adding he has discussed a candidacy with Cuomo.
Another Jewish advocate said, “Cuomo will immediately be the top candidate in the Jewish community.”
The development comes as even some of Adams’ supporters have expressed serious doubts that he can survive politically and win re-election, regardless of the outcome of his criminal case.
“I’m skeptical that Eric can survive and make it to next year’s election,” said Michael Nussbaum, former president of the Queens Jewish Council and a board member of the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York.
“I would support Andrew Cuomo. We know he can manage and govern,” said Nussbaum, adding that he spoke to the ex-gov last week.
Another Jewish leader said Adams “is toast” in terms of trying to win re-election.
The city’s Jewish population was listed at 960,000 out of a total city population of about 8.3 million, according to a recent report. Jews could account for 20% to 25% of a Democratic primary vote, said Jerry Skurnik, a voter data analyst who runs Engage Voters US.
That large voting bloc was a major reason why Adams was successful in his 2021 campaign.

This is inner city 5 boroughs dwellers
Wealthy and poor.
They are like senseless when it comes to choosing good people to lead their government
They booed Giuliani out weeks after he led them during the aftermath of 9-11
A lot of the rest of the state is quite red actually
They need an inner sate electoral vote

No it doesn’t.
I’m sorry to say it like this: https://asset.library.wisc.edu/1711.dl/HLPUKJVNCPYYB8V/M/h1380-3962e.jpg (the eternal Jew)
They really do not learn or change.
I feel sorry for them.
These people more or less support creeps that would sell them out to Muslims as the Democrats already demonstrated with the last conflict starting 7 October 2023 where they largely sided with the Palestinians when those optics seemed beneficial to them.
I’m not an expert on the Jewish psyche, history and culture, so I cannot explain why it is, but there is something almost suicidal about them.

You can’t fix Jewpid. If these people want to vote Democrat, whatever consequences that arise from it are on them.

“. . . sweeping corruption charges.”
My understanding is that the charges are petty payback for countering the so-called Biden agenda.
