NYC Mayoral Race: Mamdani and Cuomo Neck and Neck
A recent poll suggests that if Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa drops out, Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani and Independent candidate Andrew Cuomo would be in a tight race.
According to the poll conducted by Gotham Polling and the city AARP, Mamdani would lead with 44.6% and Cuomo would follow at 40.7% if Sliwa were to exit the race.
However, a significant 15% of voters over 50 remain undecided. Notably, Cuomo's support among older voters increased by nine points in August.
Currently, with all three candidates in the race, Mamdani is leading by double digits, as reported by the New York Post.
