In a historic victory, 34-year-old democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani was projected to become New York City’s 111th mayor on Tuesday night — the first Muslim candidate ever elected to the highest office in America’s largest city.
ABC and NBC called the NYC Mayor’s Race for Mamdani just after 9:35 p.m., with roughly 75% of the vote counted. With almost all precincts now reported, Mamdani had slightly over 50% of the vote (1,012,850) over independent former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who nabbed 41.6% (837,398), according to unofficial results from the city Board of Elections. This election had a historic turnout, with more than 2 million votes cast — the highest number in a mayoral election since 1969.
Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who remained in the race until the very end despite immense pressure from Cuomo and others to drop out, came in third place with 7.16% (144,123).
Mamdani will take office as mayor on New Year’s Day, succeeding Eric Adams, who dropped out of the general election amid low poll numbers in late September and had recently endorsed Cuomo. The mayor-to-be, currently a Queens Assembly member, will also be the second-youngest mayor in the city’s history; Hugh Grant, who served between 1889 and 1892, was the youngest in history, having entered office at just 31 years of age.

"So proud to be a New Yorker! The American dream continues!
Congrats, Mayor @ZohranKMamdani"
The younger Schwartz (Soros' real name) is proud to be a communist and congratulates a jihadist who he supported with dark money.
Swear, cannot make this up....
This is great for New Yorker's. Bad for fascists, billionaire bootlickers the usual whiners.
He's young, smart and a fresh face. Hopefully he will surround himself with experienced associates. Let's give him a chance before we crucify him.
im so excited. he is more on our side than we think
Welcome back, JQ!
Remember what they said about Lindsay: "He's fresh and everyone else is tired"

I told you trashing Ed Koch, Bill Thompson and Eric Adams always yields the same result.
Meaning is bad for you.
The fascist party you referring to was started by Benito Mussolini - AFTER he was KICKED out from the communist party.
You can add Adolf the mass murderer to the club - he was a Nazi.
National Socialist - all left wing nutjobs and mass murderers if you ask me.
Too bad that this country has NO FUNCTIONING education system,
so is really not your fault that you are treated like mushrooms, they grow in the dark with plenty of manure.
No, Adams is done. He's moving to Israel to be with his employers.
Someone's got Soros Derangement Syndrome.
Agreed. Trump and Cuomo supporters need to move to Nebraska or suffer 4 years of irrational derangement.
He already got Lina Khan. There's no better fighter against corporate control than her.
You might want to do your research and look up which country actually bribed Adams.
