Republicans and Major Donors Mobilize to Block Zohran Mamdani's General-Election Bid
NEW HAMPSHIRE, UNITED STATES, JUL 12 – Republicans are leveraging Mamdani's progressive policies and recent primary win to target Democrats nationwide, spending tens of millions to influence key competitive races ahead of the 2026 midterms.
- Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old Queens assemblyman and democratic socialist, won the Democratic primary for New York City mayor late last month.
- Mamdani's victory followed a campaign focused on progressive policies and controversial statements, drawing support from prominent Democrats and criticism from Republicans.
- Republicans and major donors quickly mobilized, launching attack ads portraying Mamdani as a radical socialist and raising at least $20 million to challenge him.
- Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani described Mamdani as a threat to America, while JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon criticized him as being "more a Marxist than a socialist."
- This contentious race has intensified opposition across party lines and foreshadows a volatile general election as efforts to block Mamdani increase.
