Republican Party officials and candidates are plotting to tie their Democratic opponents to New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani in places with more moderate constituencies, The Post has learned.

Zohran Mamdani is naming a new campaign manager and expanding the staff of his New York City mayoral campaign, CNN has learned, as the Democratic nominee aims both to consolidate support heading into the November general election and to begin planning a potential administration.

Democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani taunted critics while announcing a planned trip to Uganda and campaigning to lead New York City.

The rebuke arrives at a pivotal moment not just for Mamdani's campaign, but as Democrats nationwide wrestle with internal divisions over Israel policy.

Buffalo's 2021 mayoral election featured democratic socialist India Walton beating establishment incumbent Byron Brown in the Democratic primary, only to lose to him in the general election.

Mamdani’s trouncing of Cuomo marked the biggest national victory for lefties since Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won her first election in an upset over entrenched Democratic Rep. Joe Crowley in 2018, Smith said.

Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York, said that he and his wife were going to the African country where he was born to celebrate their recent marriage.

Zohran Mamdani addressed his decision to travel overseas while on the campaign trail in a video, delivering a tongue-in-cheek message to his critics.

The democratic socialist’s victory in the New York mayoral primary is a sign that South Asian voters are beginning to assert themselves as an impactful political demographic.
