A Wave of Asian Votes Helped Propel Zohran Mamdaniβs Trailblazing Win
New Yorkers who felt heard by a politician for the first time, including people who arenβt citizens and couldnβt vote, found ways to register their support and spread the word.
I spoke to @rmkahn.bsky.social at The City about canvassing for Zohran Mamdani in Bengali neighborhoods, and it made it into this great article about how South Asian voters played an unprecedented role in Zohran's victory, which you should read!

I wrote this guide on everything you need to know before REAL ID reqs get real. (Yes, you can just use your passport. No, itβs not a national ID card. No, they *probably* wonβt turn you away at the airport but it will suck a lot)
