Mamdani’s New York victory exposes fault lines in Jewish Democratic politics

Zohran Mamdani’s election as New York’s next mayor exposed a deepening rift between traditional Democratic Jewish voters and younger progressives — one that could reshape politics for years in the metropolitan area with the world’s largest Jewish population outside Israel.

FYI, New York has not elected a Republican governor since George Pataki in 2002. It hasn’t elected a Republican senator since Al D’Amato in 1992. And it has not gone for a Republican presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan in 1984. www.thebulwark.com/p/elise-stef...

For a promise of power, she has let herself be yanked around. Now she’s launched a Trumpian campaign for governor of New York.
