The race’s ultimate outcome will still be decided by a ranked choice count. But Mamdani was in a commanding position after polls closed Tuesday night.

    I’m glad he beat Cuomo, but I don’t think he’ll be a good mayor

    Good. And fuck Cuomo for trying to split the vote despite losing the primary.

    We’ll get to see if a Socialist can beat a known criminal in this matchup. At least in NYC.

    Finally, a ray of hope. Congrats to Mamdari. We really need Ranked choice voting nationally.

      I think Cuomo conceded before they even had to consider the rankings.

        Correct, as it stands now, no one has over 50%, it will need to probably go through 9 rounds until Mamdani gets the majority, which is expected to be called next week. That being said, Cuomo is so far behind, he likely conceded since it’s extremely unlikely he’d be ranked 2nd for most of the people who votes for Adams and Lander (since they’re in 4th and 3rd place respectively).

      If that happens. Time for more mass protests. Surround ICE headquarters. Stop anyone from entering or leaving until he is released.

      Don’t do that to yourself man. Hope is still important. If anything happened to him that would be devastating but right now he’s safe and might actually be able to contribute to a resistance movement.

      It is more likely that he will lose in the general to Adams after months of hateful racist messaging than he gets nabbed by ICE.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
