Sliwa concedes as Mamdani stays ahead of Cuomo

Curtis Sliwa, the Republican nominee for mayor, concedes while alleging that he received a recent call to “bribe” him to drop out of the race. He claimed, without any proof, that he was offered $10 million to leave the race.

Sliwa said that he received a call in which a person said to him, “ ‘C'mon Curtis, everybody has a price.’ But guess what, we don’t have a price. You can’t buy us.”

“They tried to bribe me out of this race,” Sliwa said.

He also sent a message to Zohran Mamdani, without naming him.

“If you try to implement socialism,” Sliwa said, “we’re not only organizing, but we are mobilizing and we will become the mayor-elect and his supporters' worst enemies.”
