The DEMS want to make the socialist and anti-policose candidate in the future of the party nationwide

The New York Democrat Democratic Democratic Presumptive Zohran Mamdani in politics in politics can push the party to adopt more distant candidates in the next elections, according to analysts.
Mamdani, an assembly of the extreme socialist state who was nicknamed a “rising star” in the Democratic Party, was ahead of the first round of choice in the Democratic primary of the New York town hall on Tuesday, which led to the former governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, conceding to the race. Experts told Daily Caller News Foundation that Mamdani’s rapid rise in mayors’ race could report a change to Democrats promoting candidates like him who defend far left policies.
Chris Talgo, andDirector said at the Heartland Institutetold the DCNF that he thought that many young Democrats supported the campaign of mayor of Mamdani and consider him “Future star ” in the Democratic Party Because he “Socialist policies of shameless champions.
“I think that young Democrats, in particular the white progressives trained by the university, voted for Mamdani and consider him as a future star because he shamelessly support the socialist policies which, according to them, will really work,” Talgo told DCNF. “Because so many people have been indoctrinated by radical teachers and rely on biased social media for their news, they literally think that Mamdani’s plans to replace the police with social workers, open the grocery stores managed by the city and unravel more taxes on the so-called rich who resolve the problems of the city.” (Related: the daughter-in-law of Kamala Harris says that she had to overcome the “trauma” to vote to support the socialist candidate in New York)
However, Talgo noted that even if many far left policies of Mamdani apparently “Resonate among young people “in big cities like New York, they” do not seem to be very popular “among the independents and moderate democratic voters.

“Mamdani’s victory should be contextual,” Talgo told DCNF. “He won a choice of choice against the former disgrace governor Andrew Cuomo, the outgoing mayor choosing to present himself as an independent and not to participate in the primary elections. Although the victory of Mamdani will generate the big national titles, I am not sure that this means that the whole of the Democratic Party will lean into the near future.”
“It should also be noted that New Yorkers elected the mayor of Bill Deblasio a few years ago, showing that there has been an appetite for socialism in the Big Apple for many years. Although these policies can resonate among young people in big cities, they do not seem very popular with independents and moderate democrats in the heart, “added Talgo.
The longtime political strategist, Hank Sheinkopf, told the DCNF that he thought that the Democratic Party may need to kiss younger candidates such as Mamdani to try to call on young voters.
“”[Young Democrats are supporting Mamdani] Because they are younger and see [the Democratic] The party as without value without the kind of ideas represents that Mamdani represents, “said Sheinkopf to the DCNF. In order to survive, Democrats have no choice but to cultivate young people and the interests of the problems of this group. »»
Mamdani ran into an extreme left program and notably defended a variety of programs funded by taxpayers such as FREE bus, free daycare and grocery store belonging to the city. The legislator of the Democratic State previously made comments calling to reduce the role of the police in New York and also faced a wave of reactions on its anti-Israeli position.
The New York State Democratic Assembly won several key mentions before the primary mayor on Tuesday, notably the independent senator of the Vermont Bernie Sanders and the Democrat New York representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The Mamdani mayor campaign was also supported by The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)As the DCNF previously reported.
Several local chapters of the DSA went to social networks to celebrate Mamdani’s main victory on Tuesday, including the chapter of the Northern DSA DSA, which wrote in an article to X that “the The incredible History Zohran upset in New York this evening has proven that the socialist resurgency policy. »»

In the meantime, Cuomo also obtained several notable mentions before the primary of Tuesday, including certain unions, the Democratic representative of Southern Carolina. Jim Clyburn, Former mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg and former president Bill Clinton. On Tuesday, Cuomo notably reported that he is now re -evaluating the opportunity to continue to present himself as independent in the general elections of November for the mayor of New York. He is currently on the general election bulletin under the line “Fight and Deliver”.
Seth Barron, editor -in -chief of “The American Mind”, who writes mainly on New York’s politics and culture, told the DCNF that he thought that Mamdani’s success in the primary of the city’s democratic town hall would not be likely to increase the popularity of “hard -hearted socialism” among the Democrats.
“Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the primary elections of the Democrat mayor reports that a distant democrat can gain the Democratic appointment in New York,” Barron said to the DCNF. “Socialists and their friends are delighted that Mamdani’s victory means for democrats nationwide, but it is unlikely that his success will move well. As the DSA imagines it.
A candidate who ran in the Democratic primary, the New York controller, Brad Lander, concluded a crossing contract with Mamdani on June 13 – in which Lander and Mamdani told their respective supporters to classify the other second. Lander ended up arriving in third place in the first choice votes behind Mamdani and Cuomo.
Several Democratic leaders congratulated Mamdani following the primary Democrat mayor, including the chief of the minority of the Senate Chuck Schumer, who wrote Wednesday in a post X that “I led an impressive campaign that connected to New Yorkers on affordability, fairness and opportunities. Likewise, Ocasio-Cortez wrote Tuesday in an article in X that Mamdani “Dedication to an affordable, welcoming and sure New York city where workers’ families can have a shot have inspired people” in New York.
On the other hand, Mamdani faced public criticisms on the part of the legislators on both sides of the aisle concerning his distant opinions, including the Democratic representatives of New York Laura Gillen and Tom Suozzi.
Gillen, who represents a neighboring district of New York, said in a statement on Wednesday displayed at X that Mamdani is “too extreme to direct” the Big Apple, while Suozzi, whose district includes part of Queens, wrote on Wednesday in a post had “serious concerns” about Mamdani before the primary mayor on Tuesday and that “these concerns remain”.
In addition, New York Republican representative Elise Stefanik wrote Tuesday in an X article that she believes that Mamdani is “radical” and “communist”.

President Donald Trump described Mamdani as “100% communist communist” in a social social post on Wednesday afternoon.
“Democrats have crossed the line,” added Trump in his post. “We have already had radical leftrs, but it becomes a bit ridiculous.”
The director of communications of the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), Joanna Rodriguez, said in a statement provided to the DCNF that “the primary of the town hall of New York proves that socialist progressives call the shots in the Democratic Party now, and the grip of Chuck Schumer of the decade on control is rapid.”
“Because Mamdani is a darling from the far left and has been approved by representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, I suspect that his victory will divide the Democratic Party more,” Talgo told DCNF. “For the moment, the Democrats have no clear message while the mid-term elections of 2026 are looming.
“However, I think you are going further left and embracing socialist policies will not increase well for the future of the Democratic Party,” added Talgo.
The Mamdani campaign and Cuomo’s campaign did not respond to a request for comments.
