Mr. Sliwa looks completely different without his beret.

Zohran Mamdani has been elected mayor of New York City in a political earthquake that will put a 34-year-old democratic socialist in charge of America's largest city.
Mamdani, who will become the Big Apple's first Muslim mayor, defeated former New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa in a race that became a massive flashpoint in national politics.
The mayor-elect came out to wild chants of 'Zohran! Zohran!' at Brooklyn's Paramount Theater and quoted late socialist politician Eugene Debs just after 11pm and came out swinging for Cuomo.
'My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty. I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life but let tonight be the final time I utter his name as we turn the page on a politics that abandons the many and answers only to the few,' he said.
Mamdani called his election 'a mandate for change, a mandate for a new kind of politics, a mandate for a city we can afford and a mandate for a government that does exactly that.'
Cuomo conceded just shy of 11pm, congratulating Mamdani to boos from his supporters before expressing no regrets in his comeback bid.
'This campaign was the right fight to wage. This campaign was to contest the philosophies that are shaping the Democratic Party, the future of this city and the future of this country,' he said.
He also pointed out that nearly half the city did not vote for Mamdani, all of whom were 'New York patriots.'

Wow, the MSM is going crazy tonight.
I wonder if he will put in shria law first day in office?
It will take awhile, but New York City will become an absolute shit hole, gradually decaying from within.
The rich will flee.
Businesses will flee.
The rest? You voted Communist, so suffer like a good Communist.
what do you mean it’ll take a while? It’s already a shit hole.
I used to think like that, but the media will spin things
so the Left still won’t know up from down, and it will be
hard for anyone to actually see the Left for who they are.
I have some accounts that watch MSNBC non-stop, and the
filth that comes off that propagandist outlet doesn’t
reflect 1% of reality.
So good luck.
They’ll be sorry
No they won’t.
They’ll feel morally superior for being open to having call to prayer all over the city on loudspeakers.
They’ll feel superior red areas around will be paying for all the free stuff. They’ll continue being complacent
Enjoy the suck NYC.
And a new wall building program begins...
The modern wimmin there will be most sorry. And they voted for it to happen to them.
WTH is a Democrat Socialist Mayor?
It’s already a sh*thole just every other major city in the US.
More likely he’ll try to allow 14 year olds to vote.
Yes they are. They can’t hide their glee and of course their night was capped with Prop 50’s passage in California by almost 2 to 1. Great night for the Democrats and a bad one for America.
Mr. Sliwa looks completely different without his beret.
The voters of New York City are morons. They deserve what they got coming. Bad thing is that they’ll end up fleeing like roaches to the Red states and spread their imbecility there with them.
The future historic First Impeached Mayor.
I don’t know why they can’t ever get this right.
Mamdani is the first Shariaist Communist Mayor of New York City; Not the first Democratic Socialist Mayor.
Democrat Socialist is code for Communist.
This goof is a muslim commie and has no reservations like obama did. He will implement sharia law and wreck NYC.
