Walden Back In Mayor’s Race, Court Holds. @nypost nypost.com/2025/09/11/u...

Stepping into court to try and get my name off the mayoral ballot.

Judge temporarily enjoins NYC Board of Elections from placing Jim Walden on the mayoral ballot.

This mayoral candidate dropped out but could still appear on the ballot. @fox5ny.bsky.social

Joined @mikemarzaabc7 to talk about my decision to bow out of the mayor’s race and why I’m urging others to do the same. The stakes are too high to let Mamdani’s dangerous vision for New York go unchallenged. @abc7ny #NYC #NYCMayor #NYCPolitics #ConsolidateTheRace #StopMamdani #ProtectNewYork

Speaking to @foxbusiness about why I bowed out of the mayoral race. It’s simple, I did the math. #fox #foxbusiness #newyork #nyc

Today, I will submit a request to the Board of Elections to remove my name from the ballot in the Mayor’s race. We need every vote in a one-on-one race. I predict that’s what we will have: the one-on-one race we need to defeat an anti-capitalist, anti-cop and antisemitic agenda in City Hall.

I sat down with Jeff Simmons and Chris Sommerfeldt on City Watch to talk about why Mamdani can’t win in a one-on-one race, and why consolidation is the only path. Catch the full episode below. soundcloud.com/jeff-simmons...

For immediate release. Zohran Mamdani knows he cannot win a one-on-one race.

I joined NY1’s Errol Louis to discuss my decision to end my candidacy, and why I believe Mamdani is a serious threat to New York City. ny1.com/nyc/all-boro...

Thrilled that Stephen Colbert knows my name now. Too little too late!

Effective tomorrow, independent Candidate Jim Walden terminates his race for New York City Mayor.

Proud of the incredible ladies from our campaign team. Always representing Team Walden wherever they go.

Swag anyone?

Thank you for making the time for a lovely breakfast, Joseph. I really enjoyed our conversation about the future of NYC.

An incredible night in the ring with NYC Cops & Kids, facing off against my fellow opponent Matthew Bogdanos. Couldn’t think of a better way to spend a Thursday evening than fundraising to support cops and kids here in New York City.

New York City faces a serious violent crime issue, with rape increasing by 52% over the past 15 years and felony assaults at a 25-year high. Ignoring this problem is not an option. Every New Yorker deserves safety.

Integrity in Action: I will step into the Ring for NYPD Cops & Kids on August 21st in Coney Island. All proceeds go to NYC Cops & Kids Program. 🥊💙

Freeze the rent vs. Lower the rent in a city where people who are rent burdened are spending more than 50% of their income on housing. #freezetherent #lowertherent #jimfornyc #waldenformayor2025 #nyc2025 #mayoralcandidate

The workers of the future will need new skills to succeed. And those skills need to be available to our students now. Check out Jim Walden's education plan at https://jimfornyc.com/ #JimForNYC

Proud to be endorsed by former District Attorney, Cy Vance, a leader who has dedicated his career to upholding justice and strengthening our city’s integrity. His support is a powerful reminder of the work ahead and the responsibility we share to keep our communities safe and fair.

Because being a New Yorker should mean something. #jimwalden #waldenformayor2025 #nyc2025

Honored to be endorsed by author Molly Bloom a woman whose resilience and vision has left an indelible mark on our city. Her work has inspired countless people to dream bigger and fight harder for the place we call home.

For too long, the city has had a political system that puts agendas before public safety. Jim will restore accountability for quality-of-life crimes and support the police in keeping our subways, streets, and playgrounds safe for all New Yorkers. More at jimfornyc.com #JimForNYC

The current administration has failed to address the rent crisis because they're afraid of the special interests. Jim's plan is direct and unflinching: reform the rent stabilization system to make sure the support goes only to those who truly need it. More at jimfornyc.com #JimForNYC

Thank you, Good Day New York, for having me on and giving me the opportunity to share the issues I’m committed to addressing as mayor.
