Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman expressed grave concerns over Zohran Kwame Mamdani's victory in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, calling it an indicator of "political decay."

However, crypto traders on Polymarket were nearly unanimous in predicting that Mamdani would win the primary, with over 99% of the bets placed on his victory.
