A little later, after the closing of the polls in New York on November 4, 2025, Zohran Mamdani learned that he had won the mayoral election. Being the youngest elected mayor of the city since the late 1800s, Mamdani becomes a historical figure for various reasons, including being the first Muslim elected mayor in the history of the Big Apple. Criticized for his youth and less experience compared to opponents, former governor Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa, many outside of New York wonder how old Mamdani is.
Mamdani is now 34 years old. He was born on October 18, 1991.
Hugh J. Grant became the youngest mayor of New York in history, being elected at the age of 31. He served two terms, from 1889 to 1892.
Cuomo is now 67 years old. He was born on December 6, 1957.
After Mamdani was declared the winner of the 2025 mayoral election, Cuomo congratulated him and called on the residents of New York to unite.
«Congratulations to Zohran Mamdani», - Cuomo said to his supporters on election night. «Tonight was their night, and as they begin the transition to governance, we will all help in any way we can, because we need our New York City government to work. We want it to work for all New Yorkers, because our city is the greatest city in the world, and we will unite for New York, because we love New York».
Mamdani was born in Kampala, Uganda, and moved to Cape Town, South Africa, with his family when he was 5 years old. When he was 7, the Mamdani family immigrated to the United States and settled in New York.
Mamdani grew up in Morningside Heights, a neighborhood on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. After studying at Bowdoin College in Maine, Mamdani eventually moved to Astoria, Queens, where he and his wife Rama Duvvaji live
