New York City Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani campaigned at multiple clubs and bars on Saturday night and still managed to bounce back for additional campaigning on Sunday.
Social media users posted countless videos showing the 34-year-old New York State assembly member’s rounds. At one nightclub, Mamdani was spotted dancing and singing along to “Empire State Of Mind,” a Grammy-winning song by Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys that has become a sort of informal New York anthem since its 2009 release.
In another video at a gay bar, Mamdani spoke to an enthusiastic crowd that shouted affirmatively in response to him: “Are we ready to beat Andrew Cuomo? Are we ready to win a city we can afford? Are we ready to make history?”
“Let’s go out and do it. Thank you, my friends,” Mamdani continued.
Throughout his campaign, the democratic socialist has made a visible effort to meet voters where they are at. On Friday, Mamdani participated in salsa and tai chi with senior citizens at a cultural center in the city.
