Democrats sweep to victory across the US, but divided over future direction

The Democrats celebrated victories across the United States this week, including in New York where 34-year-old Zohran Mamdani convincingly defeated Andrew Cuomo in the mayoral race.

Mamdani is a self-confessed democratic socialist, is called a communist by President Trump, and his supporters insist he is the new face of the Democratic Party.

Meanwhile in Virginia, Abigail Spanberger, a moderate, centrist Democrat who used to work for the CIA, also won a convincing victory.

So who are the players in the Democratic Party’s search for its future direction?

Guest: Ross Barkan, Editor-in-Chief of The Metropolitan Review, a columnist for New York Magazine, and the author of a forthcoming book on Zohran Mamdani.
