As the Democratic Party continues to shift further to the Left, the party has been captured by the loudest of its activist class, which means that candidates must increasingly pander to the “pro-Palestinian” movement and its support of a global intifada.

This process is playing out in New York City, where Democrats will nominate their candidate for mayor on Tuesday night. The top candidate is disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, but the progressive wing of the party has lined up behind state Rep. Zohran Mamdani. Under the monstrosity of New York’s ranked choice voting, Mamdani now has a four-point lead on Cuomo, according to Emerson College polling.
