"I’m feeling good. We just got some early returns in," Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman said, adding that he expected his race to be called at around 11 p.m.
Asked about Mamdani’s win, he said, "Obviously I’m very disappointed. The fact that someone who’s a Communist and a virulent antisemite is the mayor of New York City is incredibly disappointing to me."
