Breakdown of Voters for Mamdani

Young voters overwhelmingly supported Mamdani with the AP indicating that 78% of voters 18-29 voted for him; yet he was still popular with older voters capturing 66% of the 33-44 year old crowd, 43% of the 45-64 crowd, and 36%--more than a third--of voters 65 or older. Being that Mamdani is a Muslim, it is unsurprising that he received 92% of the Muslim vote. What did surprise me was that, even with being Muslim and his anti-Israel rhetoric, he still received 32% (33% according to CNN) of the Jewish vote. (And for those Republicans who are afraid of losing Jewish voters, take note that only 3% backed Republican Curtis Sliwa). And since he is a Communist, it is no surprise that he captured 76% of the vote among those with no religious affiliation. 

    Mamdani also did very well among THOTs. Fortune reports that "[i]n NYC, young voters delivered the most striking outcomes. Within that, young women stand out—84% of 18- to 29-year-old women went for Mamdani, who will be the city’s first Muslim mayor and, at 34, its youngest in a century." 

    And the elephant in the room?  "A survey released in October from Patriot Polling found Mamdani had 62 percent support from foreign-born New Yorkers, and just 31 percent amongst American-born." The author, Brianna Lyman, explains:

    Putting aside Mamdani’s foreign support, he himself is proof of the problem. We didn’t just import new voters, we imported a new ruling class. Mamdani is from Uganda, a nation that has never truly sustained a functioning republic or culture of ordered liberty. His politics were clearly not founded on basic American habits or institutions of self-governance. His victory is what happens when a republic opens its doors to people who do not know how to maintain one.

    When you replace the people who made a civilization with people from nations that have made clear they are incapable of self-governance and republicanism, you eventually set your own country up for the same failure that plagues many of these third-world nations. What’s more, Mamdani, and anyone who voted for him — including immigrants — have already proved they are uninterested in self-governance and incapable of assimilation to basic American values. Why? Because socialism is diametrically opposed to the principles on which our Constitutional republic was founded.

    Every city and state that imports enough of the world’s population eventually imports its corresponding worldviews, too. 

But she has little hope that the Republican leadership will learn anything from this.

    Vox Day has had similar thoughts. In his post, "Mayor Mamdani," he reminds us:

    In the spring of 711, a Muslim army invaded Iberia led by Tariq ibn Ziyad, serving the Arab governor Musa ibn Nusayr, at Guadalete they swiftly defeated Roderick the Visigoth King and then marched northward to the Visigoth capital of Toledo. Both Latin and Arabic chroniclers record that the Jews of the city “opened the gates of Toledo” to Tariq, who conquered the city.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same. In 1965, Emanuel Celler finally achieved his lifelong goal of opening America’s gates with the passage of the Immigration and Naturalization Act that ended 44 years of a restrictive immigration policy that made the USA the greatest and most powerful country in the world. And now, as a direct result, both the Big Apple and the Mini-Apple are governed by foreign Muslim mayors whose interests are absolutely antithetical to the American “Posterity” for whom the Constitution was written and whose rights it was intended to defend.

Today, in a post entitled "Why Conservatives are Irrelevant," Vox Day continues this theme:

    The result of the mayoral election was not only inevitable, it was one of the primary objectives of the architects of the 1965 Immigration and Naturalization Act. This is exactly what those who hate America, hate Christianity, and hate Western Civilization have sought to accomplish since the turn of the 20th Century. Note the steep 25 percent decline [in the White population of New York City] in a decade after 1965.

    This is the intended result of the so-called “Melting Pot”. It always was. And as New York City has gone, as Minneapolis has gone, so too will go the rest of the United States if Americans do not take control of their country back from the foreigners who have usurped their right to rule themselves.
