34岁的民主社会主义者、来自皇后区的州议员佐兰·马姆达尼当选为纽约市首位穆斯林市长,击败了前州长安德鲁·科莫和共和党人柯蒂斯·斯利瓦。

马姆达尼的竞选重点是可负担性,提出了诸如免费公共交通、全民托儿服务和市政经营的杂货店等政策,这些政策将通过对富人加税来资助。

马姆达尼出生于乌干达坎帕拉,七岁时移居纽约市。他曾就读于布朗克斯科学高中和鲍登学院,主修非洲研究。在进入政界之前,他曾担任止赎预防顾问,并参与当地的嘻哈音乐圈。

在胜选演讲中,马姆达尼向城市多元化的人口致辞,他说:“我谈论也门的便利店老板和墨西哥的祖母,塞内加尔的出租车司机和乌兹别克的护士,特立尼达的厨师和埃塞俄比亚的阿姨……向肯辛顿、米德伍德和亨茨角的每一位纽约人致敬。”

马姆达尼的当选标志着纽约市政治格局的重大转变,反映了居民对进步政策日益增长的需求。
