NEW: Zohran Mamdani shocked the world by defeating Andrew Cuomo. But there’s still a General Election to win in November. Can a clown car field of Cuomo, Eric Adams, Curtis Sliwa (& the financial elite) actually stop Mamdani? I map out every scenario: michaellange.nyc/p/four-months-…

“How and where did Zohran Kwame Mamdani manage to win a crucial voting bloc that Cuomo needed?” Great article from Eli Valentin! ICYMI: Latino voters by neighborhood and borough Latino Voters and the Political Earthquake in New York: citylimits.org/latino-voters-… via City Limits

yes, i did ask Assemblymember Jessica González-Rojas about the calls for her to primary Senator Jessica Ramos in next year's election (at 57:42)...

in the new slingshot strategies general election poll, Mamdani's best racial/ethnic group is Latino voters (slingshotstrat.com/media/slingsho…)

A fascinating piece by ⁦Dominic Preziosi⁩ ⁦Commonweal Magazine⁩ on the Mamdani primary victory. h/t: ⁦DR. CM Fernandez⁩ To Be Young, Muslim, and ‘Socialist’ | Commonweal Magazine commonwealmagazine.org/zohran-mamdani…

Eli Valentin Carmen De La Rosa Ben Max Carmen de la Rosa would be a welcome possibity as City Council Speaker especially given we have no city-wide elected officials.

Here’s a revised and translated version of my last column on last month’s primary election in NYC. Writing for El Diario has special significance for me—like hundreds of thousands of Latinos, my father would read El Diario every single day. eldiariony.com/2025/07/15/los…
