This is what foreign election interference looks like.
In my early analysis of what made Mamdani the nominee, I noted that there was high turnout by the Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslim settler population in New York City combined with really low turnout and enthusiasm by traditional Democrats who weren’t exactly enthused by Cuomo et al. The 5% of New Yorkers who voted in the primary were very much a minority. This was a campaign driven by Mamdani’s fellow Indian Muslims in occupied Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Not even in the United States.
More and more people are pointing to Mamdani’s fake social media engagement coming from bot farms out of Pakistan and India rather than from actual New York City social media users. The X feed is flooded with random promotion of Mamdani coming from accounts that otherwise had few likes or views suddenly ballooning into the tens and hundreds of thousands. This is not organic engagement, but manufactured hype driven by enemy foreign nations rigging a US election.
The New York Post has an extensive workup.
According to analytics compiled from Mamdani’s social media accounts, reviewed by The Post, between June 1 and July 1, Mamdani’s Instagram followers jumped from 213,000 to nearly 3 million — a 1,295% surge — while TikTok grew more than 1,000%.
As the primary election neared, engagement by users in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh outnumbered those in the US. Coordinated messages like “Let’s go bhai!” (“brother”) were repeated in more than 750 nearly identical comments on Instagram.
Identical indeed. The emphasis was on driving turnout by Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslim settlers in New York City.
DRUM Bangladeshi turnout jumped 13% over 2021 levels; Pakistani turnout rose 11%. DRUM bragged that “almost half of all registered Bangladeshis came out to vote.” In a September story on DRUM, the New York Times reported that turnout among South Asians in the primary increased by a staggering 40% compared to 2021.
The Post story documents how this intersects with pro-Hamas groups and Communist Chinese front groups.
This is what foreign election interference looks like.

The invidious and deceptive takeover of the West continues, this time in NYC.
I hate Islam and I despise Western Leftism, which facilitates the former as well as being destructive in sundry other ways. Also, willful ignorance of Islam, a la Bush 43, is also disgusting and a menace to America and all of the West.
It’s a trinity all right, a malevolent one and aimed directly at the West. Yep, Islam + Western Leftism + willful ignorance by non-Muslims and non-Leftists constitutes a “perfect storm” to eradicate once and for all the ONLY civilization which has, a la Lord Clark, never ceased to develop and move forward.
Put another way, if the West goes, led by America, then mankind goes and by now one knows this or should know it. Alas, so many don’t including a bevy of fools in the most foolish place in America, i.e., NYC. Time for a Yuengling.

A Muslim woman has been elected as Virginia’s Lt. Governor.
Will be interesting to see if she and Mamdani both swear to support and defend the U.S. and their respective state constitutions with their right hands on a Qur’an.
Twenty-four years after ‘some people did something”…..
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Yeah, after weeks of predicting close finishes in NJ, Dems had a clean sweep of the elections. Had I been a Dem, I’d be absolutely elated
Yeah, Ghazali Hashmi being elected as Virginia’s first muslimah Lt Gov is horrifying. I’m just glad that I’m leaving this state, having voted for the last time in Virginia’s election today

An Independent, I live in California’s reddish El Dorado County. Having voted No! on Prop 50, not happy, but not surprised it passed, as the redistricting will eliminate Kiley’s seat and force me into a blue district. Hoping that will be challenged—and overturned—by the Dems’ favorite tactic: lawsuits.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
In the past, the Ninth Circuit Court overturned popular propositions, like 187 and 209. But since Trump changed the court from a Left leaning one to a more constitutional one, the current court will not overturn something that was passed by a popular vote: that’s why these propositions exist
I do get the argument that if Conservatives flee too many places and all move to Florida or Texas, not only would it be harder to dethrone the Dems in places like California or New York: even more states are likely to get flipped like Colorado was during Obama. Since we are a representative republic and not a democracy, more states flipping blue will give the Dems a solid advantage in the Senate, even if the GOP has the popular vote. One will then hear Dems mouth the argument that the GOP has been mouthing until now
Real problem is too many businesses today going woke, and that trend hasn’t exactly been reversed by the Trump election. Those companies as employers force people into even blue states like California and New York, even if those employees are not loony Leftists. I really hope more work becomes remote, so that all people can gravitate towards the states that most share their values

We now recognize NYC as a Palestinian State.
Marxist Iran did it in Gaza.
Voters did it in New York City.
Michigan, Minnesota, and Manhattan are in the Marxist Muhammadan United States of Palestine.

People…or reptiles…in other countries are not supposed to have a part in U.S. elections. It is illegal.
But, for some *reason,* it is allowed and the voter who actually *lives* in the U.S., and has citizen voting rights, doesn’t have much say in who rules over them.
Evil is taking over, temporarily. and the nations are being ‘gathered’ for that long-ago prophesied “war.”
One can only imagine the gloating, the arrogance, and the awful odor coming from NYC And every other place where there scummy muzzies it the cheating ‘win’ is in.
somehistory says
Left out the word “are.” and “if”….which is likely.
Wellington says
NYC, somehistory, has become, at best, only semi-American because of Muslim and Leftist “infiltration.” It’s Dearborn, Michigan on steroids.
Yes, I know that Dearboristan is really no longer American at all but America can “spare” a Dearborn, Muslim outlier though it is, but I wonder if it can spare a New York City. Time will tell.
Meanwhile, Muslim and Leftist parasites keep feeding upon freedom which neither Islam nor Leftism could have ever created—but both of which are capable of destroying.
somehistory says
Thank you, Wellington, for your reply.
It’s kind of like watching a passenger train with an escapee from Bedlam at the wheel, traveling at breakneck speed through the Great Smoky Mountains…or the Rockies.
Nothing for those looking on to do but watch, cringe and wait.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I heard Megyn Kelly make the same argument while reluctantly endorsing Cuomo: that while we wouldn’t like to, it’s one thing to lose Dearborn or Minneapolis, but another thing completely to lose New York
The first comparison that comes to mind is UK. They’ve lost London, but there are no cities in Britain that come even close. In our case, cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Houston, et al come close. Only problem: they’re all Left-run, so there’s nothing stopping any of them from getting muslim leadership, just like Virginia now has a muslimah as Lt Gov
I think that Free countries/states/cities should factor in Karl Popper’s observation about the tolerance of intolerance: “Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.” Under this rule, no muslim or Leftist can be a citizen b’cos both inately reject the spirit of the Bill of Rights
Cynthia says
This is so much bigger than interference with the vote. Islam, China, Russia – all those who want to bring down the west have poisoned our social media, schools and institutions for decades.
If we don’t wake up and cast these viruses out, we will lose all our freedoms and cultures.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Not remotely surprising
His father has been described as Gujarati muslim, but “Mamdani” is a Sindi name, and all of Sind is today in Pakistan. There are Sindi Hindus who successfully moved to India and settled there, and became reasonably successful. I have no idea why his father remained in India, other than to culturally sabotage Hindus

Tragic day for the US.
Islam and the constitution are polar opposites, except for liars sworn in!

It is somehow “fitting” that today, Nov. 5th, is the anniversary date of the
Muslim Terror Attack at Fort Hood in 2009.
The jihadi killed 13 Kafirs and attempted to kill another 32 Kafirs.
I refuse to use the language “fellow soldiers”.
Like the Oct 7th treachery in Israel – he worked with and knew
many of his victims personally.
It was carried out by the treacherous jihadi (Major) Nidal Hasan
who currently sits on death row at U S Disciplinary Barracks
at Fort Leavenworth Kansas.
Just another example of the ☪️ancer of Islam – “the religion of peace”
and how far they should be trusted.

I was 5 years old on the week of Pearl Harbor 1941. I only wish our nation would/could be as united in destroying a foreign enemy today as we were back then.
