Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez celebrated the victory of Zohran Mamdani in New York City's mayoral elections, saying he had to defeat both a "Republican and the old guard of the Democratic party at the same time."
"He was fighting a war on two fronts and not just one. And he still won resoundingly. And I think the message that that sends is that the Democratic Party cannot last much longer by denying the future, by trying to undercut our young, by trying to undercut a next generation of diverse and upcoming Democrats that our actual electorate and voters support," she added.
