Dianne Morales, once a rising New York City mayoral candidate, refused her newly formed staff unions’ demands on Friday, likely extending an impasse that has mired her campaign in internecine drama just weeks before the June 22 Democratic primary election.
Highlighting the impact of the labor dispute, the Working Families Party, the influential progressive organization, told its supporters on Friday to rank Maya Wiley no. 1 in ranked-choice voting. The WFP had previously co-endorsed Morales and Wiley, but a spokesperson for the party told City & State that its support for Morales had been “suspended” while she is “at an impasse with her campaign workers and their union.”

New York City mayoral candidate Dianne Morales proudly claims she’s the “progressive alternative” in the race. But former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang and retired police officer Eric Adams the leading candidates in the primary would be progressive enough for about 95 percent of the country, giving us an idea of just how radical New York politicians are.
And Morales is definitely “out there” when it comes to her politics. She supports defunding the police, “guaranteed housing for all,” and “green food, green jobs, and green justice.”
She’s a little short on details, of course, She’s a politician. And what sounds great on the stump doesn’t translate well when it comes to real life.
Progressive
New York City mayoral candidate Dianne Morales said her campaign is moving forward with a union contract on Tuesday after dozens of her campaign staff went on strike over alleged unfair pay and other issues last week. I want the best for ALL my staff – those that have been organizing for the union and those who have continued working. I’m looking forward to signing a union contract with my staff as I continue the work of building a city that works for everyone – not just the wealthy, she wrote on Twitter. The campaign is moving forward, driven by the same vision that led me to enter this race - one where all New Yorkers are able to live in dignity. I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail and the debate on Wednesday, Morales continued.
