Mamdani Endorsed Candidates Sweep Democratic Primaries

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's slate of fiery progressives swept establishment-backed Democrats in the state's congressional primaries on Tuesday, ousting two sitting members of Congress in a major victory for the city's democratic socialist movement.

Former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander defeated Rep. Dan Goldman in the 10th District, while activist Darializa Avila Chevalier unseated five-term Rep. Adriano Espaillat in the 13th District. State Assemblymember Claire Valdez also won the Democratic nomination for an open House seat, completing a clean sweep for Mamdani's endorsed candidates.
