Good guy of the year? Yup, my vote is for Zohran Mamdani.
Mayor Mamdani was sworn in at midnight New Year's Eve in the old subway station beneath City Hall in New York.
But it's his campaign that brought joy and hope not only to New Yorkers, but to the whole country.
The Mamdani for Mayor campaign had great Democratic messaging. Free buses, a rent freeze, affordable housing, a public grocery store in each of the five boroughs, and childcare.
It's not complicated.
And Mamdani did something else that I believe made him win: he celebrated the city he and his voters call home.
The summertime scavenger hunt brought all the boys and girls to the yard, and, I think, healed a lot of the desperation we were clinging to after Covid.
