Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo conceded New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary to Zohran Mamdani as the 33-year old member of the state Assembly had a significant lead in the race Tuesday night.

Cuomo’s concession came as the race’s outcome will be decided by a ranked choice count after neither Democrat got a clear majority in the vote.

Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist member of the state Assembly, started to pull ahead with more than an estimated 80% of ballots counted.

      There is nothing any of us can come up with that Stephen Miller hasn’t dreamed up already.

      (And I mean that literally, his sleep is filled with nocturnal emissions generated by imagining he is forcefully deporting people with too much melanin).

        This is exactly what I was going to say. Never underestimate how low a Nazi is willing to go, or how creative he can be in getting there.

      Like others have said, nothing we say or don’t say will change what ideas they get. But calling it out makes them at least reconsider being so transparent.
