Eralp sees election in New York as a positive sign - Left Party's Elif Eralp Eyes Berlin Win After Zohran Mamdani's New York Victory
Elif Eralp, the presumed top candidate for Berlin’s Left Party in the 2026 state parliamentary elections, aims to replicate the success of left-wing Democrat Zohran Mamdani in New York’s mayoral race. The party conference to confirm her candidacy is set for November 15, 2025.
Eralp's inspiration comes from Zohran Mamdani's recent victory in the New York mayoral election, as projected by U.S. media. Eralp, who is expected to lead the Left Party into the 2026 Berlin elections, believes that if Mamdani can win in New York, the Left Party can do the same in Berlin.
Eralp has expressed her determination to make Berlin an affordable city for all its residents. She has praised Mamdani's politics, which reject a city that functions only for the wealthy. Eralp is committed to fighting for these principles alongside Berlin's people.
