Zohran Mamdani: 34, DSA member, State Assemblyman. His platform? Freeze rent for 1 million apartments. Free buses. Universal healthcare. Tax millionaires 2% more.

The problems?

  • Congress wants DOJ to investigate his citizenship over Hamas ties
  • Won't disavow "globalize the intifada"
  • Caught changing his 9/11 story on live radio
  • NYC already has $45B in MTA debt—he wants free buses
  • Top Democrats backing him: Hochul, Jeffries, Bernie, AOC


This isn't just New York's problem. Republicans are making him the face of the Democratic Party for 2026.

Early voting broke records. Election is November 4th. Here's everything you need to know.
