Following three recent New York City mayor’s race polls showing a tightening race, a new Emerson College/PIX11/THE HILL poll out Thursday tells a much different story about the contest.
Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani hits nearly 50% support and has a 25-point lead over independent former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, according to the Emerson poll. This significantly differs from three other prestigious polls — from Suffolk, Quinnipiac, and Marist Universities released between Oct. 26-28 — which show Cuomo narrowing the gap with Mamdani, closing to within 10 points of the frontrunner in two of the polls.
