Socialist Wins Democrat Primary for Mayor of NYC
2025-06-25
[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}
