Many social media users have claimed that Brooklyn erupts in celebration as Zohran Mamdani becomes the first Muslim mayor in New York’s history
Fact Check:
This claim is false. According to the official schedule released by the NYC Board of Elections, the results will be announced on the 4th of November, 2025. Furthermore, the DFRAC team did a reverse image search and found that the circulated video is 4 months old, taken from a campaign interview of Zohran Mamdani. The news report of the same event can be viewed here, and the video can be viewed here.
Conclusion:
After considering the two facts that surfaced after research, the claim by the X user is misleading. The corresponding news and the original footage are unrelated to any election results.
