This Week in Politics: What we learned from the Democratic primaries in NYC and New Jersey
Manage episode 491358770 series 1538108
Zohran Mamdani is the presumed Democratic candidate for mayor of New York City. Technically, the primary's outcome will officially be decided by a ranked choice count next week, since no Democrat received a majority of the vote. But the presumed win by a young, progressive, self styled democratic socialist candidate over former governor Andrew Cuomo sent reverberations throughout a Democratic party that is still searching for ways to move forward in the wake of President Donald Trump's return to office.
Meanwhile, it was a different story on the other side of the Hudson.
WNYC Senior Editor David Giambusso joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to discuss the results and the takeaways for Democrats.
