"A few days after June 24, two major unions—representing hotel workers (HTC) and building staffers (32BJ SEIU)—shifted their endorsements from Cuomo to Mamdani.
Major unions that had not backed any candidate in the primary then followed suit, with public school teachers and aides (UFT), nurses (NYSNA), health care workers (1199), and city government staffers (DC 37) joining Mamdani’s camp.
Both active and retired members of these large unions helped Zohran gain over a half-million more votes than he received in round one of the June primary."
