News 12's senior political reporter Tara Rosenblum caught up with New York City mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa on the campaign trail in Manhattan.
The race for New York City mayor may have five candidates in the mix, but Sliwa says the polls don't necessarily tell the real story.
The GOP nominee and Guardian Angels founder says his pitch is simple – to tackle quality-of-life issues that voters feel every day.
He discusses taxes, congestion pricing and his love/hate relationship with President Donald Trump. He reserved his sharpest attacks for the Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani.
News 12 also spoke with Mamdani on a special edition of Power & Politics on Tuesday.
