Woot woot! M-a-m-d-a-n-i, Mamdani baby!
I mean, yay, but...
an estimated 80% of ballots counted.
That's just the first round, right? Does he not understand how RCV works? Unless his team already knows who everyone's second and third choices are, it's not remotely over yet. What am I missing?
He saw the writing on the wall and decided to make a strategic exit. A definitive defeat now would permanently end his career as a politician, but by conceding he leaves the door open to possible future efforts like a presidential bid.
He's not going to avoid the definitive defeat, the votes are still going to be counter, he's just not holding out to the bitter end refusing to recognize reality. That might help make the final tally a less interesting news story.
