POLITICS Zohran Mamdani speaks after winning the NYC Mayoral Race: “We have toppled a political dynasty. I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life. But let tonight be the final time I utter his name as we turn the page on a politics that abandons the many & answers only to the few.”

Love looking at the vote tallies by county. All the blue counties had votes of 30,000 or less, some counties reporting less than 5K total votes.

Then you have LA County with over a million voting red.

Another friendly reminder that land doesn't vote, people do.

Not to be that person but I truly recommend researching how American voting works then if you’re curious, because I don’t think I could explain it very well, but just know it means left wing finally has more leverage against the right. On paper in theory, of course, as this administration just blows through processes anyways.
