I started the day with the news that Dick Cheney is dead. Now I'm ending it with news that Zohran Mamdani is mayor. It's been the best day in a long, long time.

VOTER FRAUD! There's NO WAY someone who Campaigned on Helping the Middle Class could BEAT a Sex Offender with Billionaire Sugar Daddies! There's NO WAY!

A win for the people! Cuomo's campaign expenses were $56 million, 2.5 times higher than Mamdani's. Cuomo was mostly funded by billionaires, while Mamdani had mostly small sum contributions.

Why are capitalists so bad at investments?? Weren't they supposed to be the smart entrepreneurs?

Billionaire will = thwarted

Billionaire funding = wasted

We have a long slog ahead of us. But today was a good day.

Hell yeah. Hopefully this will contribute momentum to a larger nationwide socialist movement.

The Empire will strike back folks. Brace yourselves and don't self-congratulate too much, the real fight starts now. Good luck, American friends!

My country's (very politically aligned) public news station described Mamdani as "communist" and "anti-Semitic".

I am always a bit disgusted by Italian public service news station, this one was particularly telling at how biased it can be.

“Trump signs executive order that Cuomo actually won and that Dick Cheney is still alive.”

AP calls the race for Mamdani as well.

Beacon of hope in a dark time for America. Now it's time for all New Yorkers to prepare to make the city that lifts everyone up in a way that every North American city would want to emulate.

Wow who would've thought that listening to voters' concerns about the economy, acknowledging their fears, and promising real change to address the most important issues facing them would be a viable way to win elections!

The first thing my conservative acquaintance wrote was "I hope you re ready for another 9-11" because now its coming" They are really scared eh

Happy to see the Cuomo campaign fail and waste all that $$$ in the process. Fuck him

It is crazy what giving people to vote for something, instead just voting against someone can produce some great results. Mamdani had to take on a class on billionaires and the old DNC leadership he who didn't want to back him. It is funny af to see Chuck the leader of Dems show vote blue no matter who was fake. He most likely voted for Cuomo.

Chaney is dead, Mamdani wins? Good news for the nation as my personal life is shit.

Genuinely uplifting in a way. Thank you to all the NYC voters making a difference. And a big thank you to anyone to visits Chaney's grave to piss on it.

So happy to see a clean sweep on EVERY major election across the country for dems and freedom. We cannot take the foot of the gas, the white house is currently working HARD to find ways to take away Mamdani's win and hurt New Yorkers because they voted against the king.

We need to maintain the pressure.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of elitists suddenly cried out in terror and suddenly clutched their pearls.

Congratulations to Americans and new yorkers in particular! Hoping real change for quality of life succeeds

facebook is going wild. they are circulating an image from (what they propose) is ISIS endorsing zohran for winning. the best comment was "this is like 9/11 again!"

Welp time to see Trump flail his arms and cry like the man child he is

The reactions from the right are gonna be hilarious.

Fuck yes! That’s really good news and that it well needed right now!

Love to see that Silwa did in fact split the conservative vote, but Mamdani would've won anyway.

My mother, the only family that I have left that I will talk to sent me a text asking if any other cities will have a "radical Islamist" mayor. I ignored it because I could not find the words to explain that what she described isn't a thing without destroying the one connection to my family I have left.

Lovely news to wake up to, thanks.

I will forever respect Sliwa for sticking it out. He’s a real one. Maybe Mamdani can make him the head of the parade department.
