Episode notes
One month ago, New York City was completely shaken up by the election of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani to the Mayor’s Office. This sparks a major shift in one of the country’s most prominent cities, and leaves people with a lot of questions about how the financial capital of the world will continue to run under a socialist. But, New York City might not be the only major city succumbing to this shift – a new candidate for Los Angeles Mayor might just bring that trend here to California as well. We are getting into all of it today.
