# Why Focusing on the Democrats Misses a Meaningful Lesson From Mamdani’s Win
This video was posted shortly after #MamdaniForMayorNYC's _primary_ win...so the fact that I'm linking to it now that #ZohranMamdani is preparing to take office as Democratic #MayorMamdani can be taken to be something […]

# Zohran Mamdani: “Hope Is Alive”

Photo taken from the standing audience at the packed Brooklyn Paramount Theater where Zohran Mamdani's election night party was held. He is onstage, about to step over to the lectern to deliver his acceptance speech. Klieg lights, hanging from the ceiling at the back of the stage are shining. Flags stand at the back of the stage. In front of them, behind Mamdani are signs, one horizontal, hanging from the ceiling, one vertical, standing on the stage, each reading "Zohran for New York City". Mamdani, his hand over his heart, looking grateful and slightly tired, smiles at the packed audience, whose heads and raised phones are visible at the bottom of the photo.

A landslide begins to seem less likely. Trump's urging people not to vote for Dliwa appears to have had an impact.

I'm guessing these figures _don't_ reflect a sudden upsurge in Cuomo's (or Sliwa's) popularity...
but we'll know soon enough!

Picture of a broadly smiling, grey-haired older woman (oh, hell: OLD woman), dressed warmly, photographed on a city sidewalk, at an upward angle, in early autumn morning light. She wears a blue knit, yellow-tasseled beanie emblazoned with the words "Zohran for New York City" and holds a campaign palm card which, in Spanish, proclaims Mamdani's platform of - freezing rents in rent-stabilized apartments, - providing universal free child care, - fast and free buses, and - a more secure city. Behind her, on her right towers a light poll, more centrally the branches of a tree, to her left an institutional building (which is, in fact, a school serving as a polling place today).
My intrepid, indefatigable, charming and (hopefully) persuasive wife is standing, on this chilly election day morning, at a legal distance from our local polling place, urging people to vote for #MamdaniForMayorNYC
