Winners and losers emerge after socialist earthquake rocks NYC primaries

NEW YORK CITY - New York City’s primary night produced clear political winners and losers as Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s slate of socialist candidates swept establishment-backed Democrats.

Mamdani, sworn into office in January of this year, flexed his political might in the city after three congressional candidates that he endorsed in the primary, Brad Lander, Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier, were all victorious on Tuesday night, and are expected to cruise to victory against their Republican opponents in November.
