I assume many of you woke up this morning to news that Zohran Mamdani has won the Democratic primary, and will be running in the November New York City mayoral election.
You have my sympathies.
And though that election is still several months off, and Mamdani will be running against, among others, the incumbent Mayor Adams (running as an independent after leaving the Democratic party in April), the polls suggest that Mamdani has a solid chance of becoming New York’s 111th mayor.
