Fateh received many comparisons from Zoharan Mamdani in New York City. Like Mammadani, Fateh is a Muslim Democratic Socialist and, at the age of 35, is a fellow member of Generation Y.

Frey criticized Fateh’s support for DFL in a campaign statement, arguing the party’s conference, where the decision was taken, it was “irregular”.

The campaign spokesperson Sam Shulnberg said, “This election should be decided by the entire city, rather than the small group of people who became representatives, especially in the light of extremely flawless and irregular conduct of this conference.”
