The latest Siena College poll had more good news for Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani in the November general election — and some troubling early news for Gov. Kathy Hochul in her 2026 re-election campaign.
Results of the survey, released Tuesday, found that Mamdani, a democratic socialist, continues to lead the crowded mayor’s race with 44% of the vote. However, that result was gleaned from a small New York City-based 317-person slice of the poll, which overall spoke to 813 registered Democratic voters statewide between Aug. 4-7, shows.
