Darializa Avila ChevalierAmerican politician from New York City — won Democratic primaries in New York City on Tuesday, advancing to November’s general election. The results unseated two incumbent Democratic members of Congress and defeated another establishment-backed contender, giving Mamdani’s allies likely House seats in heavily Democratic districts. The sweep was the first major electoral test of Mamdani’s influence since he became mayor and strengthened the Democratic Socialists of America-aligned bloc in the city’s congressional delegation.
