The Fox News Decision Desk has projected that New York City will elect Democratic Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani as its next mayor. The self-described democratic socialist toppled former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in a contentious fight for the future of New York City — and possibly the direction of the Democratic Party.
Mamdani, the 34-year-old Ugandan-born state assemblyman from Queens, triggered a political earthquake when he declared victory in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary in June, pulling an upset over a former governor who was widely expected to win the party's nomination.
He has since been catapulted onto the national stage, teaming up with progressive power duo Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., to rally New York City voters for his affordability agenda, which includes ambitious campaign promises like rent freezes, fast and free buses, city-run grocery stores and free childcare.
It's a race that President Donald Trump himself has been watching closely, labeling Mamdani a "100% Communist Lunatic" and "My little communist" — monikers Mamdani has rejected. On the eve of Election Day, Trump endorsed Cuomo and floated cutting federal funds to New York City if Mamdani won.

Mandami has an out. When things go bad, he will blame Trump. That will play well in NY—it is his trump card.
Yes it’s the only act they have they can’t deal with truth or facts of their self destruction of their so called democracy.
I had to search far and wide to find the actual election results. I finally found them on the Daily Mail UK. Here they are:
Mamdani 50.4%
Cuomo 41.6%
Sliwa 7.1%
This is shocking. Over half of NYC voted to kill the city in which they live.
It gets worse. Turnout was the highest vote tally for a mayor’s race since 1969.
The radical left is going to interpret this as a mandate.
OMG
You mean EVEN IF Sliwa dropped out Mamdani would still have won?
He had the popular vote….it can be said we are losing this war to stop the radical left. Sure it’s just one city but it’s NYC..THE BIG APPLE…The Capitalistic CAPITAL OF THE WORLD, THE LARGEST city in the USA.
All these sugar coaters here on FR..it’s still a disaster.
SMDH
The people who make New York run, don’t necessarily live there, and therefore don’t vote for the mayor.
“The radical left is going to interpret this as a mandate.”
They would be correct to do so.
There is no reasonable way to sugar coat the NYC numbers.
Obama, the halfrican Kenya-born communist ...
That is correct.
I am keeping an eye out for an analysis of who voted and who stayed home. A breakdown by ethnicity, age and income to see who composed Mandami's collation, and whether MAGA sat this one out.
New York, New York,
What an idiot town
Stupidity’s up
Sensibility’s down
The people all have holes in their heads,
New York, New York, they’d be better off dead.
BS
Commie boy got over 50%
No argument from me on that.
If I could go somewhere better I would.
But, congrats on my status as a wage slave.
If only an opportunity would actually open up.
