Brian Laird on WNYC.

And for our last few minutes today, back to that lead stories, Iran, Mamdani, winning, in effect, the Democratic primary for mayor of New York.

He hasn't officially won it yet with the

ranked choice voting process, but Andrew Cuomo has conceded. So we're going to give you

mom-dani voters a few more minutes on the phones for a victory lap at the end of the show today.

We took a few phone calls earlier as we did a lot of political analysis with political analyst guests. So we're

going to let you have it to yourselves for these last few minutes. Mom Doni, voters, whether you ranked

him number one or two or three or four or five, you get a victory lap. You can call up and say how you're feeling, knowing you

contributed to this victory and what you're hoping will actually achieve if he goes on to

become the mayor of New York City, 212, 433 WNYC. If you rank Mom Donnie for mayor, 212, 433

9692. I'll play a clip in just a second of his victory success. Moundani for mayor, 212, 433-9-6-9-2.

I'll play a clip in just a second of his victory speech last night.

But I wonder if there's a difference in the emotion this morning between those of you who

ranked him first, unambiguous Zeranamundani backers, and those of you who might have ranked him fifth, who might have had

some ambivalence, if you did have ambivalence, about Mamdani. Maybe you would have rather seen

Brad Lander or Adrian Adams, or Scott Stringer, or Zellner-Miry, and you only put Mamdani fifth.

I wonder what the feeling is, what the thinking is from you this morning, now that you've

seen him one, so number five, Mom Donnie voters, welcome to call in.

Certainly number one, Mom Donny voters, welcome to call in and say what you're feeling

this morning and what's the number one policy that you hope

that he ran on that he can actually implement 212-433 WNYC.

So anyone who ranked Mamdani anywhere on your ballot, 212-433-9692.
