I, for one, don't particularly want him to win - although I wouldn't particularly want either Adams or Cuomo to win, either.

As a complete outsider, I see Mamdani as a "leftover" choice. With the current state of the GOP, no Republican is going to win in NYC. Cuomo represents all that is wrong with the Democrats today. Old. Out of touch. Baggage from previous elected positions. None of the other Democratic Party candidates resonated with the voters. Mamdani at least represents some kind of change. Younger. Decently eloquent. New ideas - even if they aren't great or feasible. At least he's thinking differently.

After eliminating all the candidates New Yorkers didn't want, Mamdani was the one left over.
