Zohran Mamdani Wins NYC Mayor's Race
Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist, has won the NYC mayor's race, marking a historic moment as the city's first Muslim mayor, the first of South Asian heritage, and the first born in Africa.
Mamdani defeated former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa, securing a victory for the Democratic party's progressive wing.
As the city's youngest mayor in over a century, Mamdani will face the challenge of navigating the demands of America's biggest city and delivering on his ambitious campaign promises.
Mamdani's unlikely rise gives credence to Democrats who have urged the party to embrace more progressive, left-wing candidates.
