Zohran Mamdani will be the 111th mayor of New York City, defeating former governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa and making history as the city’s first Muslim mayor and, at 34, its youngest in more than a century.
His victory marks a stunning rise for from little-known state lawmaker to leader of the nation’s biggest city. Mamdani has held a steady lead in the race since he pulled of a shock upset over Cuomo, the former three-term governor, in June’s Democratic primary.
Current mayor Eric Adams, who had campaigned for a second term as an independent, dropped out of the race in September.
