NYC Mayor’s Race: Mamdani tops Cuomo by 4 points via ranked-choice voting in final Emerson College primary poll

One of the last polls ahead of Tuesday’s Democratic mayoral primary has socialist Queens Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani besting moderate former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in a ranked-choice voting simulation. 

The Emerson poll is the first major, nonpartisan poll to show Mamdani winning the race against Cuomo, a moderate Democrat who resigned as governor in 2021 over allegations of sexual harassment. The poll is jointly run by PIX11 and The Hill.
