New York City Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is the Democrat Party’s nominee for New York City Mayor. Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo conceded before 11pm, making Mamdani the first Muslim to be nominated by a major party for NYC Mayor.

“Tonight was not our night” Cuomo said at the headquarters of the New York City carpenters union. “I’m very proud of the campaign that we ran.”
According to Politico:
Mamdani won 43.5 percent of first-place votes to Cuomo’s 36.3 percent, according to the New York City Board of Elections. But that outcome is not final. The board is expected to announce full results on July 1 in an election that utilized ranked-choice voting, which allows New Yorkers to pick up to five candidates in order of preference.
Unlike Cuomo, Mamdani employed a ranked-choice strategy by cross-endorsing third-place finisher Brad Lander, so he stands to benefit from the practice. But polling in the race was tight, and Cuomo led nearly every public opinion survey, bolstered by a $25 million super PAC that flooded airwaves and mailboxes with anti-Mamdani and pro-Cuomo messaging.
If Mamdani’s lead holds, it would mark a humiliating defeat for Cuomo, a fixture in New York politics who tried to resurrect his career four years after resigning in disgrace, following sexual harassment and Covid mismanagement allegations. A Mamdani victory would also be tantamount to a political earthquake that will reverberate across the country, as the Democratic Party — still reeling from its losses last year — tries to chart its path forward. His lead late Tuesday night portends what will likely be an historic triumph of the party’s left wing in the biggest city in the United States, for one of the highest-profile jobs in American politics.
Mamdani is considered by many conservative pundits as being the most radical leftist to potentially lead a major city in American history. If he wins the general election, he will also be the most powerful Muslim in western society.
As a Democrat in far-left New York City, his chances of winning the general election are all but assured.
Here are some reactions on social media:
As polls close Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s odds skyrocket to 99% on Kalshi.
It was nice to know you, NYC.

Election night party for Mamdani and his socialist supporters.
These people are all imbeciles. Every single one of them. They think that socialism can work even though it’s failed every time it’s been implemented in history.

It’s a crazy timeline we’re living in.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
