Zohran Mamdani, a previously unknown political figure, has emerged as the presumptive winner of the New York City mayoral primary, capturing 44% of first-choice votes versus Andrew Cuomo’s 36%. This historic campaign makes him the first Muslim candidate to win a mayoral primary in New York. In his victory speech, Mamdani emphasized his commitment to creating a more equitable city, advocating for affordable living, social justice, and a progressive Democratic agenda. The ranked-choice voting system means final results will take longer to confirm, with tabulations expected to start on July 1.
"It always seems impossible until it's done."
