Socialist Wins Democrat Primary for Mayor of NYC

[Axios] Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo conceded to state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday night.

Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist, is on course for an earthquake victory after running an extraordinary grassroots campaign focused on affordability in America's largest city.

Mamdani was leading 10 other Democrats; including his top opponent, scandal-ridden Cuomo; in the first round of the ranked-choice election as of late Tuesday night.

Mamdani's policy proposals include rent freezes, free buses, and city-run grocery stores, all funded by $10 billion in new taxes on corporations and the wealthy {also a defund the police guy and as a bonus he supports Hamas}

#2 The Democrats among them, anyway. The current mayor is running as an independent, and someone is running for the Republicans, but I can’t recall who. No doubt those who pay attention to politics will be able to tell us — but there’s plenty of time, as the general election will be held as usual in November.

#5 I can't help wondering how many NY Jews will vote for Zohran?

There used to be, either Yankees or Damn Yankees.

Now there are, Socialist Damn Yankees.

So, given the growing collection and locations of these Liberal DNC run manure pile Metros. Are they tuning up for a mass rebellion for the 2027-28 pre-election season?

#7 It’s hard to tax corporations and wealthy individuals once they are gone.

#9 Is it because Mamdani is that popular or because Cuomo is so despised?

NY Post stated that Mamdani's campaign worked very hard and was very active. In contrast they made sound like Cuomo took the nomination for granted.

And the Republican candidate is Curtis Sliwa of Guardian Angels fame.
