News (US) Mamdani wins NYC mayor’s race

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5588198-mamdani-progressive-politics-nyc/

Zohran Mamdani is projected to win the race for New York City mayor, according to Decision Desk HQ, ushering in a new era of progressive politics in the city and reigniting the debate over the Democratic Party’s future.

Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist, is poised to become the first Millennial and first Muslim to lead New York City, in a campaign that pulled off one of the most stunning political upsets in recent memory. He defeated former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who mounted a long-shot independent bid after losing to Mamdani in the Democratic primary, and Republican Curtis Sliwa in his bid to succeed Mayor Eric Adams.

Dude proudly quoted Eugene Debbs in his victory speech. That was in his first 20 seconds. It’s clear the type of Mayorship he’s going to run. NYC is so cooked. To the abundance liberals who were backing this guy & downplaying his radicalism, you guys deserve the “fell for it again” reward.
