Mamdani: 'In this moment of political darkness, New York will be the light'

In a defiant speech, Mamdani vowed to change to city hall – and the country.

 

“In this moment of political darkness, New York will be the light,” he said.

 

Acknowledging concerns about his age and experience, Mamdani expressed only confidence: “When we enter city hall in 58 days, expectations will be high. We will meet them.”

 

“Our greatness will be anything but abstract,” he roared, concluding his remarks in Brooklyn. “It will be felt by every rent-stabilized tenant who wakes up on the first of every month knowing the amount they’re going to pay hasn’t soared since the month before. It will be felt by each grandparent who can afford to stay in the home they have worked for and whose grandchildren live nearby because the cost of childcare didn’t send them to Long Island.

 

“It will be felt by the single mother who is safe on her commute and whose bus runs fast enough that she doesn’t have to rush school drop off to make it to work on time. And it will be felt when New Yorkers open their newspapers in the morning and read headlines of success, not scandal. Most of all, it will be felt by each New Yorker when the city they love finally loves them back.”
