Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani will become New York City’s next mayor after he swept to victory in a decisive win.
His rise to political stardom was complete late on Tuesday night when he was projected to have won the mayoral contest, which will see him sworn in to replace Eric Adams in January.
The 34-year-old Zohran Mamdani is the youngest person in a century to be elected as the city’s mayor.
