Former U.S. President Barack Obama has made a surprising outreach to New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani, placing a private call to the Democratic socialist and then offering to serve as a “sounding board” for his campaign and potential administration. The 30-minute conversation covered staffing challenges and how to deliver on Mamdani’s bold affordability agenda. While no formal endorsement was issued, Obama’s involvement marks a notable shift in his approach to municipal politics and underscores the growing establishment interest in Mamdani’s insurgent candidacy as the November election draws near. #ObamaMamdani #ZohranMamdani #NYCMayoralRace #DemocraticSocialist #ObamaCall #SoundingBoard #NYCPolitics #AffordableNYC #MayoralFrontrunner #ProgressiveWave #CampaignSupport #NewYorkElection #Politics2025 #DemocratsNYC #LeftWingPoliticsAlso ReadBarack Obama Divorce Rumours: Is He Really Parting Ways With Michelle?
