White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that President Donald Trump has made his thoughts on the New York City mayoral election "quite clear."

"The president is a New Yorker, and he loves New York. He has made his thoughts on this election quite clear," Leavitt said.

Leavitt also addressed Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani's comments accusing the Trump administration of attempting to "intimidate voters with baseless allegations of voter fraud," saying his comments are "based on zero evidence."

"I think this is just another example of how the Democratic Party unfortunately stands for nothing. All they stand against is President Donald Trump, and I think it's quite sad to see that we have someone at the top of the ticket on election day today saying such things about the president, when he obviously had nothing to do with those threats," Leavitt said on Tuesday.

On Tuesday, Mamdani addressed reports of voter intimidation in New Jersey, saying these incident are "incredibly concerning."

"I think that it is an illustration of the attacks we're seeing in our democracy," he continued, accusing the Trump administration of adopting a "general approach" of attempting to "intimidate voters with baseless allegations of voter fraud as a means of trying to repress the voice of Americans across this country," Mamdani said.

Trump endorsed Cuomo on Monday in a social media post. "Whether you personally like Andrew Cuomo or not, you really have no choice. You must vote for him, and hope he does a fantastic job," Trump wrote.
