Zohran Mamdani’s stunning performance in the Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday amounted to a watershed moment for Muslim New Yorkers, who could see one of their own lead City Hall for the first time should he succeed in the general election in November.
New York City is home to roughly one million Muslims; they made up 12 percent of the electorate in the 2021 mayoral election. Mr. Mamdani wove his faith into his campaign from its earliest days, hitting the trail while fasting for Ramadan and taking his message of affordability to mosques and Muslim community centers throughout the city.
His triumph over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who led in most polls throughout the race, was driven by the diverse coalition of voters he built that included young people, people of color, and first-time and infrequent voters. Muslim voters played a large role in growing that base.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
I don’t understand why you are so anti military. You spew hate so much. It’s stunning. Ready your crap post again and see why you despise the military. Look at my FREEPER name and see why you are no different then AOC and Omar in your military hatred.
Not long, I suspect.
Houston, we have a problem!
So he was not the mastermind of 9/11 which you clearly believe. I just wanted to bring you back to facts.
Wonder, joy and glory; NYC looks like it will destroy itself with an Isamocommunist mayor. Sucking the worst filth out of the bottom of the vilest cesspit. I’ve never gone there except on business and never will.
“The result of ranked voting. It has to be outlawed...”
Yes. Quickly.
Yes indeed - after he closes all grocery stores, his government run grocery store will feature all halal foods [ at very high prices to support the city ] Muslims with the proper ID cards will be able to shop before infidels.
The sole NYC Food Store will be open on alternating days and hours yet to be announced, except for Islamic religious holidays and ‘events’ when it will be closed. Special parking buildings for muslim only owned cars, special muslim only line ups for customers. Special Islamic Masters to oversee that good order is maintained.
Theh’ll all vote, many times apiece, for the Islamocommunist, giving him an excellent chance of becoming mayor.
Commomuslium.
WTF are you ranting about me being anti MILITARY? I am TOTALLY pro MILITARY.
You were standing up for the Ugandan communist Muslim! BEYOND NUTTY.
That doesn’t change the fact that the GOP needs to support Sliwa every way it can. Otherwise, kiss NYC goodbye...
Sliwa can’t win, Adams can win.
How can he win if he’s not in the race?
I suspect Jewish New Yorkers have been voting for this direction for a very long time. They figured they would get only so far away and it would be fine. I never really understood why Jewish people ever became liberals but every Jewish person I know is an anti Republican liberal Trump hater yet they love the Jewish traditions. I would think people who love traditions would be conservative as in conserving their traditions.
“As Mayor, Zohran will put our public dollars to work and triple the City’s production of permanently affordable, union-built, rent-stabilized homes – constructing 200,000 new units over the next 10 years. Any 100% affordable development gets fast-tracked: no more pointless delays. And Zohran will fully staff our City’s housing agencies so we can actually get the work done.
“For the additional housing we need, Zohran will initiate a Comprehensive Plan for New York City to create a holistic vision for affordability, equity, and growth. This planning will allow NYC to address the legacy of racially discriminatory zoning, increase density near transit hubs, end the requirement to build parking lots and proactively chart our future.”
“Every New Yorker deserves a safe and healthy place to call home. That’s why Zohran will overhaul the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants and coordinate code enforcement under one roof, making sure agencies work together to hold owners responsible for the conditions of their buildings. Tenants will be able to schedule and track inspections with a revamped 311. If a landlord refuses to make a repair, the City will do it and send them the bill. And in the most extreme cases, when an owner demonstrates consistent neglect for their tenants, the City will decisively step in and take control of their properties. The worst landlords will be put out of business.”
“Zohran won New York’s first fare-free bus pilot on five lines across the city. As Mayor, he’ll permanently eliminate the fare on every city bus – and make them faster by rapidly building priority lanes, expanding bus queue jump signals, and dedicated loading zones to keep double parkers out of the way.”
“Zohran will implement free childcare for every New Yorker aged 6 weeks to 5 years, ensuring high quality programming for all families. And he will bring up wages for childcare workers – a quarter of whom currently live in poverty – to be at parity with public school teachers.”
” The Department will invest in citywide mental health programs and crisis response—including deploying dedicated outreach workers in 100 subway stations, providing medical services in vacant commercial units, and increasing Transit Ambassadors to assist New Yorkers on their journeys—expand evidence-based gun violence prevention programs, and increase funding to hate violence prevention programs by 800%.”
Adams is in the race as an independent.
Honestly, Sliwa should drop out and endorse Adams. He’s not THAT bad.
Sounds like a better option...
Voter turnout seems to be VERY low for NYC mayoral elections. If this guy can mobilize the muzzie mob, he probably has a decent shot at winning.
Also, not so good for female nor Christian New Yorkers.
