Hundreds of New Yorkers turned out for a lookalike contest honouring Zohran Mamdani, with nine contestants vying for the crowd's vote. Part-time actor Amadeo Fusca, who also works as a Mamdani impersonator, won the competition and took home a $100 prize. The event reflects the growing public profile of Mamdani, who has become a recognisable political figure in New York.
