Socialist NYC Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani leads a protest against the arrest of Newark’s Mayor for storming an ICE facility. Zohran Mamdani has said that migrants are “residents” of wherever they live and that “we will protect you.”
To say this candidate is a Socialist is being kind. Flying under the radar is this foreign Marxist Muslim Mayoral candidate that not enough attention is being given. Zohran Kwame Mamdani was born and raised in Kampala, Uganda.
The New York City primary Mayoral race is June 24. It is a jungle primary where voters select the top five candidates so anything can happen. As goes the Primary I suspect goes the General election. After all it is NYC.
The ballot order has been randomly chosen, and you almost have to wonder if the lottery balls were momentum-weighted. Atop the ballot will be Zohran Mamdani, a state assemblyman who has quickly risen to second place in public polls. The front-runner, former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, will be listed sixth. Does ballot order matter? It didn’t seem to in 2021, when Aaron Foldenauer nabbed the top spot, and the eventual winner, Eric Adams, was listed ninth.
What, if anything, surprised you as you pulled together the data?
Well, Mamdani’s numbers are obviously pretty eye-popping. It’s not just that he has a lot of donors, or that he’s raised a lot of money — he’s also managed to reach voters in seemingly every corner of the city. There are neighborhoods where almost everyone who made a donation to any campaign donated to Mamdani. Like in Bushwick, there were a total of 785 donors who gave to Democrats, and 692 of them were Mamdani donors.
Four years ago we have his selling point of Rent Control for the city which no doubt is appealing with its high housing costs.
Zohran Mamdani is one of a handful of democratic socialists who joined the state Legislature in 2021. He talks about his plans for when he takes office in January.
