    Mamdani, a proudly socialist 33-year-old, holds a 44-36 percent lead over over former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo – who was hoping that New Yorkers had short memories, and were ready to re-elect the textbook centrist Democrat.

    However, after the disaster of Trump’s first year back in the White House – with everyday American life interrupted by protests, immigration raids, corruption allegations and the unshakebale feeling that the nation is about to enter World War 3… It seems the pendulum is swinging back towards left-wing politics.

    It appears that the success of Mamdani isn’t so much a vote against Trumpian politics, but more a vote against the stale nothingness of the Democrats top brass – who, while pitching themselves as the progressive option in America’s political system, very seldom action – or even – offer – left-wing policies.

      Democrats are only left wing by American standards. By a lot of other countries' standards, they're center-right.

        Title claims the DNC "top brass" said or did something to express shock or diabelief and then proceeds to provide no evidence of that.

          This doesn't belong in Not The Onion, the Betoota Advocate is extremely satirical. OP ate the onion and then posted it on Not The Onion.

            He gave the voters what they were asking for and they showed up to vote for it.

            Remember when we told you if Harris or Biden didn't do the above, they would lose the election? Pepperidge farms remembers.
