Bill O\u2019Reilly warned Tuesday that tourists thinking of visiting New York City if Zohran Mamdani is elected mayor that they\u2019ll be in danger.<\/p>\n

On his \u201cNo Spin\u201d podcast, the conservative news host said that New York streets will be filled with criminals and cops will be nowhere to be found if Democratic candidate Mamdani wins the mayoral election next week \u2013 which it\u2019s looking exceedingly probable he is going to do.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t live in the city, you\u2019re not directly affected. But if you have to go in there, watch out,\u201d O\u2019Reilly said. \u201cWatch out. You know, I keep telling my young daughter, you know, mid-20s, living on the Upper East Side, working hard for a living. I go, if this guy\u2019s elected mayor you\u2019re going to have to be very vigilant wherever you go because the criminals are going to run wild, and they\u2019re just waiting for it. Cops are not going to be around. It\u2019s going to be \u2013 what a nightmare.\u201d<\/p>\n

Early voting has opened in New York and Mamdani has a commanding lead over Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. The five-day Manhattan Institute Survey<\/a> has the Democrat candidate ahead with 43% of likely voters. Cuomo trails with 28% and Sliwa lags further back with 19%. Eight percent of voters remained undecided.<\/p>\n

Mamdani, a democratic socialist, has run on a platform of affordability during his campaign. Chief among his talking points has been making bus transit free for everyone while raising taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers. He\u2019s gained endorsements from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Gov. Kathy Hochul, New York Attorney General Letitia James, Rep. Nydia Vel\u00e1zquez (D-NY) and more.<\/p>\n

Election day is next Tuesday, Nov. 4. Watch O\u2019Reilly weigh in below:<\/p>\n
