💨 Abstract

Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old social democrat, has gained significant attention and praise for his surprising success in the New York City mayoral primaries. His campaign, which focused on issues like affordability and included proposals such as rent freezes, has mobilized younger voters and drawn scrutiny from both Democratic operatives and prominent Republicans, who are either inspired or deterred by his policies.
