New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani says democratic socialists can win elections across the United States, including potentially the presidency. In an interview with ABC News’ Jonathan Karl for the network’s “This Week,” Mamdani responds to questions about whether a democratic socialist could be elected president by saying a democratic socialist “can get elected anywhere across this country for any position.” The Hill and Fox News both report that Mamdani makes a broad claim about the electability of democratic socialists nationwide. Fox News additionally links his remarks to the political context of Democrats’ internal disagreements over the party’s direction and notes that endorsed candidates have won Democratic primaries, presenting Mamdani’s comments as consistent with that outcome. The Washington Times similarly reports that Mamdani expresses confidence that a democratic socialist could one day win the presidency. Across the outlets, the central point is Mamdani’s view that democratic socialists are electable for a wide range of political offices, not limited to local races.
