Multiple DSA members seek to succeed Zohran Mamdani in New York state assembly race

Several members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are emerging as potential successors to Zohran Mamdani in his New York State Assembly seat after he stunned the political landscape by winning the election at 34. Several DSA candidates have already announced their intention to run, including several local activists and community organizers who support Mamdani's progressive policies. The move comes as some speculate that Mamdani may not seek re-election due to the scrutiny surrounding his campaign. As the primary season approaches, these candidates will likely face off in a series of debates and voter outreach efforts to win the seat.
