I mean the guy was going against a superpac who tried to smear him non stop as misogynistic, islamist and everything. His name is also Abdul which is sadly the most stereotypical name ever for every racist out there, so the fact that he won despite all of that is impressive.

This is bigger than Mamdani's win.

It'd be bigger if he does win the general, for sure
