After progressive Democrat Zohran Mamdani won Tuesday’s New York City mayoral election, Republicans wasted little time in turning on their nominee Curtis Sliwa for refusing to drop out and splitting the conservative vote.
With 90.5 percent of ballots counted at the time of writing, Mamdani was found to have sailed to victory with 50.4 percent of the vote, making the 34-year-old Queens assemblyman the first Muslim to lead the Big Apple.
