NYC Mayor’s Race: Cuomo maintains lead in race in primary, but Mamdani still gaining, Marist Poll says

Andrew Cuomo continues to dominate the Democratic primary for mayor even as the election tightens with less than a week to go, according to a Marist Poll released on Wednesday.

The former governor broke 50% in the seventh round of ranked-choice voting, the Marist poll calculated. As the first-choice candidate of nearly four in 10 likely left-leaning voters, including those who are undecided, Cuomo outpaced fellow second-place candidate Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic socialist Assembly member from Queens who has more than a quarter of the vote, according to the poll.
