Mamdani’s success, according to mainstream narratives and prominent pundits, is due to a mixture of individual political acumen, social media savvy, a talented video production team, and his appealing message of a more affordable city for all New Yorkers. All of this helped, but the fact that #Mamdani secured the most total votes in a primary in #NewYorkCity’s history marks the culmination of a grassroots political project that began at least back in 2015, when the #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica (#DSA) announced a “New Strategy for a New Era,” energized by the early days of #BernieSanders’s first presidential run.
