Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders in support of the mayoral frontrunner and Democratic nominee.
Hochul, who had recently endorsed Mamdani for New York City mayor despite previously voicing concerns about his tax-the-rich policies , attempted to stay on message during her surprise appearance despite the drowning boos and chants. 6
