Today we’re publishing an excerpt from Theodore Hamm's new book Run Zohran Run!

It’s now available for pre-order via OR Books — which also published Refaat Alareer’s collection “If I Must Die” — and it’s an inside account of Mamdani's stunning upset victory over Andrew Cuomo in the June Democratic primary for New York City mayor. (Hamm covered the primary for Drop Site.)

Six weeks before the June 24 primary in the New York City mayoral race, Andrew Cuomo led Mamdani by over 20 points in the polls.

The following excerpt is a look at how the genocide in Gaza became the turning point in the New York City race. Read it below.
