22:03Now PlayingNew York State Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani pulled off an astonishing upset this week. In the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, he beat out the longfavored winner, former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who conceded the race only hours after the polls closed. The two candidates were of the same party, but held very different positions within itCuomo is older, spent more than a decade as Governor and positioned himself as a lawandorder centrist. Mamdani is younger, newer to politics and a total progressive. This is a primary race in just one city, but it's been making national news and could shake up the Democratic party's strategy postTrump reelection. Brittany sits down with Christian Paz () , senior politics reporter at Vox, and Max RivlinNadler () , reporter and copublisher at Hell Gate, a local news site for New York City. They discuss what this race says about where progressive energy is coming from and why the Democrats might be having a Tea Party moment.
