Democratic Socialists topple Harlem incumbent with votes from 7% of registered Dems

Article excerpt

A five-term congressman lost his seat Tuesday to a 32-year-old community organizer backed by NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and the margin of victory came from just 7% of the district's registered Democrats. "In some of these districts, nobody votes, it's a very small turnout and the Democratic Socialists of America come in and win," one analyst said.
