Zohran Mamdani News | Mamdani Sets Sights On Trump, Says New York Victory Shows Way To Defeat Him
The first major Election Day since President Donald Trump returned to the White House started off well for Democrats. Polls have closed in Virginia, where Democrat Abigail Spanberger was voted Virginia's first female governor. In New York, Democrat nominee Zohran Mamdani won the mayoral race. The 34-year-old self-described democratic socialist, who had been a target of Trump's criticism, emerged as a national star after winning the polls. Democrat Corey O'Connor won election as mayor of Pittsburgh. O'Connor defeated Republican nominee Tony Moreno. In Virginia, Democrat Ghazala Hashmi also won the lieutenant governor's race, defeating Republican John Reid. Hashmi is the first Indian American and first Muslim to win statewide office in Virginia.
