Overperformance compared to polls and the money stacked against him. He's not just won the primary*, but won it big. Few polls had him winning. Even the polls that had him winning overall had him losing the first round of ranked choice by a fair margin. He's just won the 1st round by like 7%

(for reference about the money)

* technically the final rounds of ranked choice aren't yet tabulated, but it is exceedingly unlikely he given that the person in #3 is a progressive who told his supporters to rank Zohran #2. Cuomo has already conceded

Over performance, as a phrase, indicates someone exceeding their capabilities.

Zohran rather, exceeded expectations.

How much money you have is about capabilities, no?
