Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo continues to hold a commanding lead in the Democratic primary field for the 2025 New York City mayor’s race, bolstered by strong support from older voters, according to a new poll released Tuesday.
The poll from AARP New York and the Siena College Research Institute found Cuomo was the top first-choice pick among registered city voters, earning 34% support. After six candidates were eliminated in the ranked-choice voting system, Cuomo would win the election in the eighth round of counting with 54% of the vote.
