Billionaire Developer Joins Ackman in Urging Sliwa to End NYC Mayoral Bid 

Billionaire Developer Joins Ackman in Urging Sliwa to End NYC Mayoral Bid 

Billionaire developer John Catsimatidis has joined hedge fund manager Bill Ackman in urging Curtis Sliwa, the Republican nominee for New York City mayor, to withdraw from the race. The pressure is mounting on Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels, to facilitate a challenge by Andrew Cuomo against the frontrunner, Zohran Mamdani. The article suggests that Catsimatidis and Ackman believe Sliwa's withdrawal would improve Cuomo's chances of winning the mayoral election. Cuomo, the former governor of New York, is reportedly considering a run for the position, and his entry into the race could pose a significant challenge to Mamdani, the current frontrunner. The article does not provide further details on the reasons behind the calls for Sliwa to drop out or the potential implications of Cuomo's potential candidacy. It remains to be seen whether Sliwa will heed the calls to withdraw from the race.
