NYC-DSA was very clear that running on the democratic party ballot line was an NYC specific strategy and a requirement to be a viable candidate in NYC.
Running on the democratic party ballot line is also not the same as running "within the democratic party". Its a weird nuance specific to US politics. Whose name gets a (D) or an (R) next to it isn't controlled by the parties but the local election commission. Mamdani doesn't have any obligations to the NYC democratic party and that's why they're still rallying around Cuomo. He effectively stole their ballot line.
