Zohran Mamdani has won 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, after 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.
Mamdani focused heavily on affordability, pledging to freeze rent, establish city-owned grocery stores and make buses free for riders. He quickly became a progressive icon as well as a polarizing figure within the party over his positions, so much so that it divided prominent New York Democratic leadership over whether to endorse him.
They gave Trump the country. They gave him a get-out-of-jail free card. Pathetic fucking phonies who don’t even REMOTELY give a fuck about the issues they claim to care so deeply about.
Dementia Don had the same number of voters in 2020. Somehow, those 10 million fucking idiots were able to vote for Biden but Harris “didn’t deserve it”? Maybe you can explain why a convicted felon child rapist deserved it instead. Because if you refused to vote for for her, you helped him come to power. You’re a Trump supporter. Hope you’re fucking proud.
They didn’t give anything. Complete absence of things. Null. Zero. It’s especially deranged to think they possessed an entire country to give. It’s literally impossible to give what you don’t have, and claiming otherwise is serious mental gymnastics.
BTW I didn’t vote for him and my state has sent its electoral votes to Dems from current day contiguously back longer than any other state. So assuming who I support is another ignorant statement.
