Replies here are something to behold. I think for someone in my demographic living in the Brooklyn Bolshevik Belt I know a disproportionate number of Mamdani-sceptics and anti-Mamdani people, and this (particularly the very large "better than expected" result) rings true to me. 31.2K views · 71 likes · 3 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →
