Not true at all. There's at least 600,000 illegal immigrants living in New York city. Confirmed. Not alleged, not a matter of conjecture, just straight up out in the open illegal immigrants.
Mamdani won by around 140,000 votes. And that's assuming those are the votes that took him over the edge and that all other votes were legitimate.
If half voted for him\ and you subtract that from his votes, he'd have lost to Cuomo by almost 150K votes. If all of them voted for him, he'd have been completely shut out.
Voter fraud matters. I guarantee that if illegals weren't being given de facto voting power, Mamdani would not have won in NYC. Guarantee it. Leftists (be they open Marxists or "Progressives") are not as popular as the media pretends they are. They make up roughly 16% of the Democratic party, there is literally no mathematical way they keep sweeping in blue strongholds. There aren't enough far-lefties for that to be viable, especially in areas where Republicans don't even bother running. In all these states it's literally Dem vs. Dem and a minority of a minority party shouldn't be able to upend the apple cart so handily.
There are more than a few major metropolitans areas where there is a substantial foreign population that vote for pro foreigner parties and politicians. In Washington State, the lowball estimate is that 1 in 7 Washingtonians are illegal immigrants, primarily residing in Seattle and surrounding areas. That can swing elections easily, since these states do not check their voter rolls (case in point, our old AG who is now the Governor, threatened to put an Election Auditor in prison for daring to clear the voter rolls of dead people in Washington).
The Lefties are cheating. Dems don't want to reveal it, because then their fraud comes out too. These are mechanisms the old guard Dems have been using since Kennedy but the Lefties don't know how to be subtle about it. We'll see more about it coming out in the next few years.
