US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyMayor Zohran Mamdani confirmed Monday that he has been meeting national union leaders about the 2028 Democratic presidential race, though he has not named a preferred candidate.
Mamdani has met with the head of the painters' union and plans to meet UAW president Shawn Fain. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a close ally, has yet to decide whether to run for president or challenge Senator Chuck Schumer in 2028.
On Monday a new group, Ready for AOC, launched a national drive urging her to seek the presidency.
