Here's why Mamdani will be NYC's 112th mayor, not the 111th

Nicolls first served as mayor in 1671, when New York was under English rule, making him the city's sixth mayor at the time. In 1673, the Dutch briefly retook control of the colony, replacing the mayoral system with Dutch officials known as burgomasters. When the English regained control in November 1674, Nicolls was sworn in again, this time as the city's eighth mayor. That second term was later left out of official records.
