Pollster Mark Penn: Mamdani a ‘911 Moment for the Democratic Party’

  • Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old Queens assemblyman and Democratic socialist, won the 2025 New York City Democratic mayoral primary, defeating Andrew Cuomo.
  • Mamdani's rise reflects a broader realignment in the Democratic Party, driven by generational and demographic shifts that challenge longstanding Israel support.
  • Mamdani's refusal to denounce calls to 'globalize the intifada' and his criticism of Israel's Gaza campaign as 'genocide' sparked sharp concern among pro-Israel Democrats.
  • Pollster Mark Penn labeled Mamdani an 'antisemitic socialist' and warned this victory represents a '9-11 moment' for New York Democrats amid low primary turnout of 800,000 voters.
  • Mamdani will face Republican Curtis Sliwa and incumbent Eric Adams in the November general election, a contest that could redefine New York City's political and cultural landscape.
