Left-Wing Democrat Zohran Mamdani Shocks Andrew Cuomo in NYC Mayoral Primary. In a major political upset, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo conceded to state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor. Cuomo, who resigned in 2021 amid a sexual harassment scandal, was hoping for a comeback but Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist, had the edge. During his concession, Cuomo acknowledged that "Tonight is his night," signaling the rise of Mamdani as a strong political force. If elected, Mamdani would become the first Muslim and Indian American mayor of the city. With results showing Mamdani leading, the primary is seen as a key moment for the Democratic Party as they regroup after recent losses. Political analysts are calling it one of the biggest upsets in modern NYC history, with Mamdani's victory reflecting a desire for bold leadership. Despite his loss, Cuomo is still considering a potential run in November's general election.
