💨 Abstract

Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist, is gaining traction in New York City’s mayoral race. He recently received a key endorsement from U.S. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which could strengthen his appeal among progressive voters. Mamdani's campaign focuses on lowering the cost of living and has gained attention for his bold proposals like free child care and rent freezes.
