Zohran Mamdani, a millennial New York State Assembly member, is now the frontrunner to become New York City's next mayor.
His campaign promises include rent freezes, free buses, and public childcare — funded by taxing the rich. Critics call his platform unrealistic.
If elected, Mamdani would be NYC's first Muslim mayor, with his win potentially reshaping the Democratic Party's future.
