New York Attorney General Letitia James is undeterred after being indicted by the Trump administration in a fiery speech at a campaign rally for New York City mayoral Democratic nominee, Zohran Mamdani. “We see powerful voices trying to silence truth and punish dissent, and yes, weaponize justice for political gain,” said James on Monday night, without naming President Donald Trump by name. “We are witnessing the fraying of our democracy, the erosion of our system of government. This, my friends, […]

President Barack Obama called Zohran Mamdani after his Democratic primary win

President Barack Obama called Zohran Mamdani shortly after his Democratic primary win in the race for New York City mayor.

Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, recently made headlines for once marking ‘South Asian’ and ‘African American’ on an application. While applying to Columbia University as a high school senior in 2009, Mamdani completed a portion of the application by checking boxes to self-identify as both South Asian and African American. “Most college applications don’t have a box for Indian-Ugandans, so I checked multiple boxes trying to capture the fullness of my background,” said Mamdani in […]

Zohran Mamdani claimed victory over Cuomo. His next obstacle: Eric Adams, the Republicans and more

Zohran Mamdani has claimed victory over a wounded, but still formidable former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary. Now he faces an equally tough task: Defeating Mayor Eric Adams and a Republican opponent — and maybe even Cuomo again — in the general election, while fending off critics who argue the 33-year-old democratic socialist is too far to the left. While the results have yet to be finalized, Mamdani had a commanding lead that will be exceedingly difficult for Cuomo […]

For Black voters who picked Zohran Mamdani when Cuomo, Adams, and old ways weren’t enough

If you were a Black voter of a certain age in New York City, many people expected you to vote for Andrew Cuomo in Tuesday’s mayoral race. The numbers show, by and large, that’s what happened–Cuomo had a 20-point advantage with Black voters over State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, earning over 51% of the vote. But while Cuomo emerged from his resignation-retirement in hopes of running the city, his big loss to Mamdani shows that most Democratic voters didn’t want the […]

Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo conceded New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary to Zohran Mamdani as the 33-year old member of the state Assembly had a significant lead in the race Tuesday night.
