Zohran Mamdani , 33 , a democratic socialist and state assembly member in Queens , has been the surprise package in the Democratic primary.

With scandal-plagued incumbent Eric Adams sitting out the primary he may run as an independent.

With 800,000 Muslims , 350,000 believed to be registered to vote, this could be the year that they show their power.

Mamdani has the capacity to win, says Sheinkopf , but his anti-Israel stance could be a problem: “Is Mamdani ’s run a worthwhile demonstration of how healthy a democracy is? Yes. But he’s got to convince people his behaviour is within the bounds of what [they] consider appropriate.”.
