Far more voters have a negative view of Andrew Cuomo than any other candidate in the Democratic primary of the New York City mayor's race. He’s on track to win anyway.

I would agree that if the dem primary sends Cuomo to the general, they deserve to lose. But almost certainly they wouldn't lose in that scenario. What NYers don't get is that there is almost zero risk sending a more radical nominee to the general, because there is no Republican opposition.

Also, Democrats simply can't lose NYC because there is no opposition party here. It isn't really electorally possible at the moment. Conservatives with any brain in NYC run as democrats. Eric Adams being a prime example.
