Mamdani is now a PROVEN king maker

38. Yes, and in this case, only three districts got endorsements.

Somehow, three districts out of all the districts across the country are supposed to carry so much weight that they overbalance the rest. That's a mistake that leads to overstated expectations. Those three districts are pretty much guaranteed to go to progressive candidates, generally, so they were safe for Mamdani's endorsements.

The other districts in New York City aren't that progressive in nature, so he wisely didn't make endorsements in those, and those districts are not even mentioned in these articles and posts. They're still very important districts and there is interesting news from fhem as well. It's irrelevant to the goals of some Democrats, though, so we don't hear about them much.

For example

"The only grandson of John F. Kennedy hoped to carry on his family's legacy from within the halls of Congress, but ultimately fell short to establishment darling Micah Lasher in a crowded Democratic primary"

We didn't hear about that in this post on DU. Nothing wrong with that, but It's also important to see a broader perspective, even from a single city in a single state.
