Hochul and Mamdani stump together — for 15 minutes — in first joint campaign appearance of NY governor’s race

Mayor Zohran Mamdani stumped with Gov. Kathy Hochul for the first time Friday — hoping to give the moderate Democrat a boost with his lefty base in New York City less than two weeks before Election Day.
