Mamdani, a democratic socialist and state assemblymember, will make history as the first Muslim and South Asian person — as well as the youngest in over a century — to serve as New York City mayor.
A Houston police union targeted New York City officers with a recruitment campaign after Zohran Mamdani, who previously called to defund police, won the NYC mayoral race.
Late Tuesday night, after Mamdani was declared the winner, the White House X account (formerly Twitter) posted “Trump Is Your President” in an image that resembled the Knicks logo. According to Front Office Sports’ Margaret Fleming, the Knicks contacted the White House and asked for the image to be removed, and it was deleted Wednesday.
Wall Street braced for change with the election of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani as New York City mayor on Tuesday, a win set to reverberate through the heart of global capitalism, with financiers worrying the city's competitiveness and business appeal could suffer.
The former governor, part of New York’s political firmament for nearly half a century, finished what may be his final campaign with a bruising loss to Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayor’s race.
