Zohran Mamdani Takes Oath At The Stroke Of Midnight In Historic NYC Subway Station: Watch Full Video
Zohran Mamdani officially took office as mayor after the New Year’s Eve ball drop, in a private ceremony held at a shuttered relic of the city’s subway. A millennial, South Asian and Muslim leader, Mamdani became the city’s first Muslim mayor—and the first to swear his oath of office on the Quran.
“This is truly the honor and the privilege of a lifetime,” Mamdani said.
The inauguration will unfold in two distinct ceremonies, blending symbolism, faith and the city’s layered history. A private midnight swearing-in took place in a disused subway station beneath City Hall, followed later in the day by a public ceremony on the steps of City Hall.
