The election results fully demonstrate the complexity of the current political landscape: a radical progressive candidate, who provoked opposition from both the right wing and some centrists, still achieved a decisive victory
NBC新闻预测,34岁的民主社会主义者佐赫兰·曼达尼赢得纽约市市长选举。

他激发了城市内外进步派选民的热情,同时也引发了特朗普和共和党人,以及部分民主党中间派的强烈反弹。

曼达尼周二选举中轻松击败前纽约州州长安德鲁·科莫。科莫在民主党初选失利后以第三方候选人身份参选。共和党候选人是柯蒂斯·斯利瓦。

纽约市长埃里克·亚当斯曾于2021年以民主党人身份当选,今年尝试以第三方身份争取连任,但他在9月退选,并于上月宣布支持科莫。

特朗普也在最后一天宣布支持科莫。
