Mamdani declares win in NYC mayoral primary
New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani won the primary race on Tuesday night after pulling off a stunning upset by beating rival Andrew Cuomo, a seasoned politician and former governor of the state. The relatively unknown upstart, 33, born in Uganda, moved to New York with his family aged seven. He beat the odds to declare victory in the contest after gaining a substantial lead over his rival, who resigned as governor due to a sex scandal in 2021.
