Zohran Mamdani stuns Andrew Cuomo in NYC mayor primary
The 33-year-old democratic socialist would be the first Muslim to lead the nation's largest city if elected.
The primary in staunchly liberal New York is likely to determine who becomes mayor in November's election.
The former governor's loss marks the "biggest upset in modern NYC history," Trip Yang, a political strategist, told the BBC.
"A massive win for Zohran Mamdani that shows that when Donald Trump is President, New York Democrats want to see their leaders fight with enthusiasm and courage, and that's what Zohran showed voters."
In an interview with the New York Times, Cuomo said he was still examining whether he would run in the general election in November on the independent line.
You're viewing a single thread.
November’s election.
Eugh I don't want to put up with more reocurring posts across all communities about some american city election that last till november.
This is a US based community. You may want to block it if that bothers you.
Did you look at where you are?
It's a Canadian
communityinstance, and the article is from the BBC. Guess what the first B stands for the (hint: not America, and neither is this a "US based community")Now I hate US defaultism as much as the next guy but this isn’t a case of it.
The BBC posts articles regarding the entire world, it’s not entirely fixated on just the UK

This is my community, lol. Did you look at where you are?
Correction, Canadian instance.
sh.itjust.works is Canadian.
So I guess a better question might be: why did you join a Canadian instance to create a generically named community about American politics?
Did you think "gee, sh.itjustworks is a funny name, I'm going to sign up there", was it more a land-grab for a high-level keyword "politics" as a community, instead of creating it as "uspolitics" or "americanpolitics". Or maybe you just assumed American politics were the one that mattered most, even on a non-American instance?
Whatever your reasoning, now Canadians who signed up for this Canadian instance see your American news in their feed under the "politics" heading. It's not even "American politics relevant to Canadians"
Not really a great look.
Gatekeeping instances where the guys are great and invited me when I was on reddit? Another one that needs a little struggle in their life if you think this is worth a diatribe about. You really need to block this community. I can help with that if you keep going.
No one cares
sure, but my comment still stands that this shit is going to pollute the rest of the current events/news based communities until november.
good luck with your shitshow country though.
Hey thanks! Good luck with your shitshow country too!
Where you from?
They're likely a Canadian.
Hey now why are we catching strays? Dude's getting dog piled with downvotes on a Canadian instances community. They're probably a Euro, they love to complain about US news cycles.
Yeah, he's probably russian. I've done the ultimate test on who's stalking me and they proved to be russian most of the time.
You might be wondering what the ultimate test is. Here, I'll show you. It never fails to make me laugh anyway, and if the downvotes pile on, they're definitely russian. You're welcome to use it yourself because it's a great video. It might be because it has russian in the name too, but honestly, who tf cares. It takes a bit to get going (*about 30 seconds), but it's worth it.
