  • What Tuesday’s elections mean for the future of abortion rights

    Democrats’ commanding victories have breathed new life for supporters of the reproductive health fightSupporters of abortion rights have spent much of the last year trying to fight Donald Trump’s attempts to undermine access to the procedure.

  • How Mamdani built an ‘unstoppable force’ that won over New York

Can Democrats learn from his success?A week before Zohran Mamdani astounded the world by his out-of-nowhere, odds-defying, convention-shattering victory in the New York City mayoral election, members of his vast army of youthful volunteers were amply aware of what was at stake.A group of 16 had assembled in the Bohemian Hispanic neighborhood of Bushwick in Brooklyn for one last push to heave the Democratic candidate over the line.

  • Zohran Mamdani is filling disillusioned Americans with hope and inspiration | Osita Nwanevu

    Whatever he manages to accomplish as mayor, much of potentially national significance can be learned from his candidacy aloneThe thing that should surprise us most about Zohran Mamdani’s election is that it wasn’t a surprise. Well before the result was called on Tuesday night, weeks of reliable surveys had already suggested his victory in New York’s mayoral race, by a nine point margin over former New York governor Andrew Cuomo, would be a foregone conclusion ⁠— an extraordinary finish for a man unknown to the vast majority of New Yorkers when he launched his run just over a year ago. The campaign that followed was one of the greatest in American history.True as it may be that both Cuomo and incumbent mayor Eric Adams were deeply flawed candidates marred by scandal, it was by no means inevitable that Mamdani would be the leading candidate against them ⁠— as recently as February he was polling at 1% in the Democratic primary, well-behind a slew of challengers with more name recognition, more experience and deeper roots in city politics. They were defeated by an ever-growing army of volunteers ⁠— 90,000 by the summer ⁠— led substantially by organizers from the Democratic Socialists of America. Early in the campaign, it was a given to many commentators that an openly leftist campaign for the mayorship of the world’s financial capital would face impossible headwinds. In Tuesday night’s victory speech, Mamdani opened with a quote from Eugene Debs. Per exit polling from CNN, one out of four New Yorkers who went to the polls described themselves as socialists.Osita Nwanevu is a Guardian US columnist Continue reading...
