Julie Menin, a councilwoman from the Upper East Side, was seen by some supporters as a necessary check on Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist with an ambitious policy agenda.

Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, will go to the White House on Friday. The stakes are high for the city.

After months of warning voters against Zohran Mamdani, President Trump said he found common ground with the mayor-elect in an Oval Office meeting.

Mr. Adams, whose tenure as mayor of New York City ends in six weeks, will fly on to his next destination on Tuesday and remain out of the city all week.

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said he hoped to press President Trump to help ease the affordability crisis. His remarks came a day after Mr. Trump said he wanted to “see everything work out well for New York.”

When Zohran Mamdani is sworn in as New York City’s 111th mayor, he will be the first with such an intimate connection to Queens.

Zohran Mamdani, after a triumphant campaign built on progressive ideas and a relentless focus on affordability, will become the city’s first Muslim mayor, and its youngest in more than a century.

Zohran Mamdani motivated voters to head for the polls, using a broad coalition of supporters to overcome Andrew Cuomo’s success in siphoning Republican votes.

President Trump endorsed former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo as Mr. Cuomo, the front-runner Zohran Mamdani and the Republican Curtis Sliwa campaigned across the city.

Zohran Mamdani, Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa traveled across the boroughs to close out the final weekend of the campaign, as New Yorkers headed out to vote in droves.
