Zohran Mamdani wins 2025 NYC mayoral election
Posted By: Dreadnought, 11/4/2025 10:40:12 PM
Far-left Democrat Zohran Mamdani has won New York City’s mayoral race — winning a mandate to move to enact his budget-busting, socialist agenda, according to preliminary projections. The Associated Press called the race for Mamdani, 34, about 40 minutes after polls closed, and with at least a few hundred thousand votes still to be counted. Mamdani carried 50.4% of votes to Andrew Cuomo’s 41.3% at around 9:40 p.m. The projection — which came with 75% of votes counted — also found GOP nominee Curtis Sliwa with rock-bottom 7.5%. The Uganda-born Mamdani will be the Big Apple’s first Muslim and first socialist mayor, as well as one of the youngest.

Voters in Texas seemed poised on Tuesday night to approve a series of tax exemptions and bans as well as new investments in state infrastructure and research.
All 17 constitutional amendments on the ballot held majority support Tuesday night, most of which restrict the creation of certain taxes or allow for new tax exemptions. Other amendments would create state investments in water infrastructure, dementia research and technical college funds.
Proposition 10 received the largest share of voter support Tuesday night. The amendment would temporarily lower homeowners’ property taxes if their homes are destroyed by fires.
Will Democrats choose tonight to cave on the Schumer Shutdown? Have they already chosen to cave? Earlier today, Senate Democrats again blocked the clean continuing resolution from coming to the floor for the 14th time in the last five weeks, with no movement toward ending the filibuster that has kept the government mainly shuttered since funding ran out on October 1st.
However, something is afoot this afternoon among Chuck Schumer's caucus, even after Trump's refusal to budge on SNAP: Whatever could that mean? Schumer has spent the last five weeks insisting that there were no other options. So, for that matter, have John Thune and Donald Trump.
In my 2:00 piece, I wrote about Australia's soon-to-be-implemented requirement to upload a Digital ID in order to conduct an internet search.
Every search query you make will be tied to your ID, ready for the government to conveniently track you as you move around the internet.
The UK is still pushing its propaganda regarding Digital ID, and hasn't quite gotten the policy over the finish line. But fear not, until they do, they have other ways to go all Chinese Communist Party social credit system on you. Britons are assured that there are no specific plans to ban VPNs, but that "everything is on the table."
Embattled Democrat Jay Jones, who spent recent weeks embroiled in a scandal surrounding violent text messages he sent in 2022, won Virginia’s off-year attorney general contest on Tuesday evening against GOP incumbent Jason Miyares. Jones’s victory was a major defeat for Republicans, who spent millions in advertising in the final stretch of the campaign to boost Miyares.
Jones was leading 53 percent to Miyares’s 47 percent with 90 percent of ballots cast when the Associated Press called the race.
Jones was helped across the finish line by Democratic gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger, who soundly defeated Republican Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears
Californians have voted to approve Proposition 50, a redistricting proposal that would add as many as five Democrat-held seats in Congress.
Governor Gavin Newsom said the measure would allow the blue state to fight back against President Trump’s agenda and “efforts to undermine the democratic process.”
Newsom proposed the redistricting plan in response to redistricting efforts in Texas that favor Republicans. Lone Star State Republicans revised their maps mid-decade, redrawing lines in such a way that Republicans could gain five seats during next year’s midterms.
Zohran Mamdani stunned the country with his win in the New York City mayoral race Tuesday night, defeating former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott wasted no time mourning the election results. “Join me for a moment of silence for NYC,” Abbott wrote on X, just minutes after the race was called. He also offered “thoughts and prayers” with an emoji depicting hands in prayer. Mamdani is the city’s first Muslim and first South Asian to be elected mayor, and he will be the youngest mayor of New York City in more than a century when he takes office on Jan. 1.

A UPS plane crashed near Louisville’s Muhammad Ali International Airport in a fiery wreck Tuesday evening, officials confirmed as a plume of smoke could be seen for miles.
Multiple emergency crews, including the Louisville Metro Police Department, responded to the crash site around 5 p.m., where authorities warned there was “fire and debris.”
A shelter-in-place order was issued within the hour “for all locations within 5 miles of the airport,” the LMPD posted on X. Injuries were reported, but the exact nature or how many passengers were on board the aircraft is unclear, police added.
Monday on CNN’s “The Lead,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) called President Donald Trump “the worst thing on the face of the Earth.”
Pelosi said, “He’s just a vile creature. The worst thing on the face of the Earth. But anyway.”
Reporter Elex Michaelson asked, “You think he‘s the worst thing on the face of the Earth?”
Peklosi said, “I do, yeah. I do.”
Michaelson said, “Why is that?”
Pelosi said, “Because he‘s the president of the United States, and he does not honor the Constitution of the United States. In fact, he’s turned the Supreme Court into a rogue court. He’s abolished the House
We’ve seen some truly sick stuff out of the Left in recent times – they’ve fangirled cold-blooded murderer (suspect) Luigi Mangione, they've celebrated the multiple assassination attempts on President Trump, and they've mocked the tragic and depraved assassination of TPUSA co-founder Charlie Kirk.
But this Montana city commissioner candidate may take the cake in terms of reprehensible rhetoric, the kind we’re getting all too used to these days coming out of the Democrats, like Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones (who literally wished the death of his opponents’ children). Utterly sick stuff.

President Donald Trump publicly endorsed Andrew Cuomo on Monday while threatening to withhold federal funding from New York City if Zohran Mamdani, who he labeled a "Communist", wins the mayoral election.
In a lengthy post on Truth Social, he warned that the city would face "total economic and social disaster" under Mamdani’s leadership.
"If Communist Candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the Election for Mayor of New York City, it is highly unlikely that I will be contributing Federal Funds, other than the very minimum as required, to my beloved first home, because of the fact that, as a Communist, this once great City has ZERO chance
The federal food stamp program will pay out partial benefits to millions of Americans despite running out of regular funding at the start of this month due to the ongoing government shutdown, the Trump administration confirmed in court documents Monday.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will receive about 50% of its normal benefit level throughout November, using a contingency fund set aside for natural disasters and other emergencies.
The announcement by the White House follows a pair of Friday rulings by federal judges in Boston and Providence, RI

Dick Cheney Has Died
27 replies
Former US Vice President Dick Cheney who was a leading advocate for the invasion of Iraq has died at the age of 84, his family has said. The hard-charging conservative passed away last night due to complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease. Cheney served alongside Republican President George W Bush for two terms between 2001 and 2009. He was the chief architect of the 'war on terror' and was in office on the morning of 9/11.
Dick Cheney, who died on Monday, was one of the most prominent and polarizing Republican vice presidents in history -- and in recent years a blunt-spoken critic of Donald Trump.
Dick Cheney and his daughter, former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, voiced their opposition to Trump after his push to deny the 2020 election results and the pro-Trump mob attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
In 2024, Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney endorsed Democrat Kamala Harris over Trump. "In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump. He tried to steal the last election using lies
The Vatican’s doctrinal office said Tuesday the titles of “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix” are not appropriate ways to describe Mary’s participation in salvation.
In “Mater Populi Fidelis” (“The Mother of the Faithful People of God”), the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) said when an expression requires frequent explanation to maintain the correct meaning, it becomes unhelpful.
“In this case, the expression ‘Co-redemptrix’ does not help extol Mary as the first and foremost collaborator in the work of Redemption and grace, for it carries the risk of eclipsing the exclusive role of Jesus Christ,” according to the doctrinal note, released Nov. 4.
The White House offered no public condolences Tuesday on the death of former Vice President Dick Cheney — saying flags were lowered to half-staff at the executive mansion because the law requires it.
President Trump has repeatedly attacked Cheney, who died Monday at age 84, as a “warmonger” and sparred with his daughter, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) who served as the top Republican on the House select committee that investigated Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Both Dick and Liz Cheney endorsed then-Vice President Kamala Harris in last year’s election, with the former VP saying Trump was the greatest threat to the country since its founding.
Presler: Voting Machines Down in Three

Red Districts of New Jersey as Election

Voting machines went down in three districts of New Jersey early Tuesday, which is Election Day, according to Early Vote Action’s Scott Presler.
Just before 8:00 a.m., Presler reported via X that three red districts in Cumberland County saw their machines go down.
“In 3 RED districts in Cumberland County, NJ, the machines are down. On the phone w/ legal right now,” he wrote: Other conservatives on the social media platform highlighted the news and urged people not to skip out on voting.
“Election machines have gone down in multiple locations across CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NJ – where Republicans are outperforming their 2024 turnout by double digits, Scott Presler says. Isn’t that suspicious.
Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) will formally introduce articles of impeachment against radical left-wing U.S. District Judge James Boasberg for what he calls the judge’s “corrupt and unethical” role in the so-called Arctic Frost investigation.
"Chief Judge Boasberg has compromised the impartiality of the judiciary and created a constitutional crisis. He is shamelessly weaponizing his power against his political opponents, including Republican members of Congress who are faithfully serving the American people within their jurisdiction," Gill told Fox News Digital. “Judge Boasberg was an accomplice in the egregious Arctic Frost scandal where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators. His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit
At some point in the last few days, Portuguese Judicial Police (PJ), along with the Portuguese Navy, "intercepted a semi-submersible vessel in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean."
I know what you're thinking. It was probably just a submarine filled with poor, humble fishermen trying to earn a living in international waters, right?
Maybe narco-fishermen.
It was actually filled with 1.7 metric tons of cocaine and four men on board who reportedly have ties to a criminal organization. Authorities say it was headed for the Iberian Peninsula with plans to distribute the drugs throughout various countries in Europe.
The four men will be questioned in court, according to
On Climate, Follow the Money

A week ago, Bill Gates released a long memo on climate that got a great deal of attention. He said more or less what critics like Bjorn Lomborg have been saying for a long time: sure, increased levels of carbon dioxide will tend to increase global temperatures to some extent. But the increase will be modest and will not have catastrophic consequences. Rather than impoverish the world in a futile attempt to control the weather, we should focus on human well-being, which relies more than anything else on affordable energy.
You might think that such a moderate, sensible approach would meet with nothing but praise. But no: climate alarmists went crazy,

James Comey’s legal troubles just got a whole lot worse.
In September, James Comey was indicted on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice. Comey claims he’s the victim of malicious prosecution, and Democrats are out in full force claiming that this is part of Trump’s “revenge,” but newly filed evidence that Just the News obtained is quite damning. Prosecutors have revealed what looks like a smoking gun: Comey’s own words showing that he wasn’t merely aware his top aides were leaking to the press; he was actively congratulating them for it.
