Mamdani S Surprise Win Reawakens Democrats Internal Factions

'Selling the City' star and real estate broker Taylor Middleton tells 'Fox & Friends' New York City clients are feeling uncertainty and anxiety after far-left candidate Zohran Mamdani's mayoral primary win. For Republicans, the reaction to democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani's stunning victory this week in New York City's Democratic Party primary for mayor was simple. They attacked the Ugandan-born 33-year-old state assemblyman from Queens, who took a major step toward becoming the first Muslim mayor of the nation's most populous city, as an extremist and anchored him to Democrats... The attacks stretched from down ballot on the campaign trail all the way up to the White House, with President Donald Trump claiming that Mamdani was "a 100% Communist Lunatic." REPUBLICANS USE MAMDANI BOMBSHELL VICTORY OVER CUOMO AS AMMUNITION TO BLAST DEMOCRATS AS EXTREMISTS To best 10 candidates in the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City, Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani had to overcome an endorsement from a former president, attack ads from longtime billionaire donors and...

Now appearing as the likely Democratic nominee after former Gov. Andrew Cuomo conceded, Mamdani faces a dual challenge: lukewarm support from the Democratic establishment and Cuomo’s apparent comeback attempt, reported by CNN, as an independent candidate. Mamdani, a 33-year-old self-proclaimed Democratic socialist from Queens, ran an outsider campaign that challenged the Democratic establishment by energizing young voters in a populist campaign promising affordability. Cuomo, who won five statewide elections before resigning his governorship in disgrace in 2021, was the clear favorite until 12 days before the election, when Mamdani passed him in the polls. Mamdani’s win was a surprise upset that shocked many Democrats — and rebuked party elders who opposed him. Though Mamdani had the support of progressive leaders such as Rep.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Queens/Bronx) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), as well as the Working Families Party political group, prominent Democrats like Gov. Kathy Hochul, Senate Minority Leader. Chuck Schumer and US Rep. Hakeem Jeffries declined to endorse Mamdani during or after the primary. 👋🏾 Hi, hey, hello!

Andrew Cuomo tightened in the weeks leading up to the election, prognosticators warned that it might take a week or more before results were definitive. That caution, it turned out, was unwarranted.
