JFC “won by a lot more” while not running against a former governor who was pretty popular at a time, in a three-way race, where Bloomberg made it rain millions of dollars on the third-party candidate. Totally comparable.

Zohran Mamdani Is New York’s First Millennial Mayor. You Can Tell by His Suit.

Oh my god is this piece real? "Mr. Mamdani’s jacket is soft at the shoulder, with modest lapels no wider than a Democratic Socialist’s membership card..."

My cats playing with an ice cube on the floor and I'm like, that's it, get ICE, GET IT.

Michael Blake announces that he is running for Congress to unseat Ritchie Torres.

“I will fight for Academics not AIPAC, Books in The Bronx not Bibi & Bombs, Groceries not Genocide.”

I spent way too long wondering how Texas was going to be replaced by camels

Can confirm

Can not stress enough how cartoonishly perfect of a day it is in NYC today. A comfortable 65 degrees. No cloud in the sky. Most golden light you have ever seen. It’s like the city is on a soundstage. You would call it corny if you saw it in a movie’s ending.

Zohran says you’re trans now

Congratulations to Kaohly Her, who was elected last night as the first woman and first Hmong American mayor of St. Paul, MN!! (This is a HUGE upset victory!)

Y'all, I was standing next to my friend who is a first year teacher when he said this and I had feelings.

"Breaking: Sexless, godless freaks leave homes for first time to support socialism"

"The country is incandescently pissed off at Republicans, anywhere here are some mildly toned down versions of Republican policies"

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life”

Hey, I get it. I was like, we'll have to move if Cuomo wins, and my partner was like, we'll never find an apartment this affordable when we come back! And, so it goes, the normal middle class CUNY employees, threatening to leave the city if Cuomo won. AND HE DIDN'T.

Not doomscrolling for once.

Good morning, all, everywhere. Except to Cuomo, Gillibrand, and Schumer.

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

REMEMBER, if you are in line to vote in the New York City elections NO YOU ARE NOT you are On Line

Guy who opposes Cuomo because he renamed the Tappan Zee Bridge

Read the responses and you will understand why the campaign is successful.

setting a 72-hour timer. this is the NYC LIB OUT ZONE. everyone gets a free pass for expressing enthusiasm for electoral politics in this carefully delineated window. post about the power of voting!!! cry over a schmaltzy campaign video!!!! allow a brief flutter of hope in ur rotted soul!!!!

I'm so glad your kid was able to vote in this election!

This happened in our polling place and the person who was the first time voter yelled "IN NEW YORK" as we all cheered.

New Yorkers, how are we controlling our heart rates between now and tomorrow night?

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo!

I know how hard you worked for this.

I’m sorry but you still don’t know enough about Curtis Sliwa I’m sorry but you still don’t know enough about Curtis Sliwa

Was honored to help @chana.bsky.social edit this deep dive compilation of Curtis Sliwa lore gathered over weeks. There is so much jaw-dropping material, we simply could not bear to make it shorter than 76 slides.

Me: we made it a whole year without someone in our inner circle getting added to the ofrenda.
L: damn, I wish we had a photo of Ross.
Me: are you fucking shitting me right now that wasn’t last year
Reality: November 19 2024 we lost Ross and somehow time is meaningless

want to say a deep thank you to Papi Juice for creating a space for queer and trans New Yorkers. In a city where so much is about struggle, it's so important to have space for joy! 18.7K 613

Zohran Mamdani went to my favorite dance party, Papi Juice, and dropped queer socialist truth MAKE THIS BITCH MAYOR ALREADY (h/t @alexanderchee.bsky.social )

Aw I’m sorry to hear this. He always seemed like a such a character.

Zohran Mamdani campaigned a lot and appears not to hate the voters whose support he's seeking. Here's what other Democrats can learn from his unorthodox strategy.
