New Yorkers faced a clear choice - between hope and fear - and just like we’ve seen in London - hope won. Huge congratulations to @ZohranKMamdani on his historic campaign. Mamdani’s win in New York shows courage & conviction still cut through. He stood up to fear & corporate power and won.

You ignited a grassroots campaign, built on the radical idea that everyone deserves to live in dignity. Huge congratulations to New Yorkers and especially to Mamdani! A new dawn breaks as truth and unity overcome lies and division. The echo chambers couldn’t hold back the people’s voice. This victory of righteousness will spread across the whole globe! Zohran Mamdani’s victory sends a clear message that too many forget: Politics starts with people. Always. Congratulations to @ZohranKMamdani and all who stand for social justice, equality, and people driven change. Continue reading...
