Chicago’s budget woes under far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson should serve as warning to New Yorkers planning to back socialist Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral bid.

“Chicago is proof that incompetent leadership can turn a deep-dish city into a half-baked mess,” ex-Gov Andrew Cuomo wrote on X Friday.

“From long before we built the Erie Canal to compete with Chicago, New York has always been about making things happen I believe in government that works,” boasted Cuomo, a registered Democrat who is running for NYC mayor as an independent.

“I have done it time and time again for the people of New York. Let’s do it again.”

Cuomo’s indirect dig at the Democratic nominee and frontrunner to win this year’s NYC mayoral race came in response to Johnson earlier this week saying Chicago needs to deal with looming budget shortfalls even as it’s education, housing, health care and transportation systems are “woefully underfunded.”

Last year, the Wall Street Journal editorial board dubbed Johnson “America’s worst mayor.”

Mamdani, a Queens state assemblyman, is proposing a series of pie-in-the-sky proposals that his critics doubt he’ll find the funding or support to pull off, including eliminating bus fares and setting up government-run grocery stores.

Mamdani campaign spokesperson Dora Pekec told Fox News that “trusting Andrew Cuomo to address New York’s affordability crisis is the equivalent of tasking an arsonist with putting out a fire — he created this crisis.”

The post Cuomo: Chicago mayor’s ‘incompetent leadership’ should be a red flag for anyone supporting socialist Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor appeared first on New York Post.
