All eyes were on New York on Tuesday when Zohran Mamdani swept to victory to become the city’s next mayor.
Prior to polling day, Donald Trump had implored – nay demanded – New Yorkers not to vote for the Democrat Socialist.
New Yorkers paid little attention. Mr Mamdani’s victory was resounding. Although, it’s not a hugely surprising result that a city which has always been progressive lurched left.
The focus on New York, however, has taken attention away from another election. And that one is far more concerning for the White House. One data analyst has said it shows a significant number of potential Republican voters are now “deeply uncomfortable with Trump”.
