Mamdani, who campaigned on progressive issues and identifies as a democratic socialist, will be the youngest New York mayor in over a century. He will also be the city’s first Muslim and South Asian mayor.

4 months / bsky / @wired.com / wired.com

With over 90 percent of the 2 million votes counted on Wednesday morning, Mamdani held an almost 9 point lead over former governor Andrew Cuomo, with Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa trailing far behind with just 7 percent of the vote.

It is Mamdani’s embrace of New York’s immigrants and his own Muslim upbringing that most of the MAGAsphere fixated on, calling him everything from a “a third-world communist” to a “Marxist” and “a jihadi.”
