Zohran Mamdani, the possible new Democratic mayor of New York, who is a Muslim extremist and communist, might not be the only radical to move into Gracie Mansion in the event of a victory.
His wife, an artist whose works are often noted for pro-Palestinian themes, will accompany him if he manages to win again in the November elections after his victory in the Democratic primaries.
Rama Duwaji, 27 years old, wife of the 33-year-old communist, joined him on stage after Tuesday night's surprise victory, in one of her rare public appearances during the campaign.
Until then, she had mostly stayed away from the cameras since Mamdani launched his candidacy in October, but she gained notoriety in May after The Post revealed details of her exclusive engagement held in Dubai.
During his victory speech against former governor Andrew Cuomo, Mamdani paused to dedicate a few words to his partner. "I must thank my unbelievable wife," he said to the applause of those present. "Thank you, Rama," he added, as he kissed her hand.
"I couldn't be prouder," Duwaji posted on Instagram after her communist husband's historic victory, a triumph that could make him the youngest mayor of New York since 1914.
Who is Rama Duwaji
Rama Duwaji's biography on Instagram, where she has about 85,000 followers, states that she is originally from Damascus, Syria. However, a campaign spokesperson told the New York Times on Wednesday that the artist "has Syrian ancestry but was born in Texas."
