- Election results: Mamdani won the NYC mayoral race in November 2025.
- Inauguration date: Official swearing-in typically occurs in early January; for 2026, the standard cadence places the inauguration around January 1, 2026.
- Historical notes: He becomes the first Muslim mayor and the youngest NYC mayor in over a century.
