The NYC mayoral primaries have shaken up political calculations.
The apparent victory of socialist NY state assemblyman Zohran Mamdani may have been a significant political change, or it may have been a local anomaly because voters could not stomach Andrew Cuomo and there was little support for the other Democrats.
Some Mamdani supporters doubt that his apparent victory will change either Democratic or U.S. politics. Have we learned any lessons from the Mamdani campaign? If so, what? Or were the Mamdani proposals tailor-made for the Big Apple?
Americans should study and give careful consideration to the variety of expressed criticisms of current policies and practices as they shape their voting preferences for 2026 and beyond.
Enough U.S. voters have had enough of the harsh Trump and congressional autocracy to turn them out in 2026. Where might future voters look since so many had turned their backs on Democrats in 2024?
