Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic primary mayoral election, receiving 56% of the vote, largely from Brooklyn, which contributed about 40% of his total votes. His victory marked a notable shift toward socialist policies in New York City, drawing mixed reactions from residents. While some expressed excitement about his potential to drive change, there were also concerns about fulfilling campaign promises. Mamdani emphasized the start of a coalition aimed at making the city affordable, and feedback indicated divided sentiments toward the election process and its implications for governance.
"This is just the beginning of our expanding coalition to make New York City affordable. And we will do it together," he said on X.
"I feel like Zohran actually pays attention to the needs of each and every individual," said Minor, who lives in East New York. "You can see it in the things that he wants to implement."
