    Propaganda wins elections. The less educated the population is, the more likely they are to fall for propaganda and media manipulation. America has a lot of uneducated voters.

      America does but NYC is a fairly different electorate. I canvassed for Mamdani and many voters were exposed to anti-Mamdani propaganda and voted for him anyways. The cost of living in NYC is a far larger threat than narratives they come up with.

      And the best thing is they are voting for lawmakers who want to defund education further! Truly making America great
