"With two and a half weeks before Election Day in New York City, Zohran Mamdani is maintaining his front-runner status while independent candidate Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa struggle to chip away at his support. Ahead of the race's first of two general-election debates, Mamdani achieved a significant milestone as he hit 50 percent in a poll for the very first time in the race."
"In a Fox News poll released Thursday, Mamdani received 52 percent from likely voters, followed by Cuomo with 28 percent and Sliwa with 14 percent. Among registered voters, Mamdani dipped slightly to 49 percent while Cuomo held at 28 percent and Sliwa got 13 percent. The poll surveyed 1,003 New York City registered voters from October 10 to October 14."
"The Fox News poll also took a look at voter enthusiasm regarding the three candidates. Among Mamdani voters, 75 percent said they were either "extremely" or "very" enthusiastic about voting compared to 59 percent of Sliwa voters and 43 percent of Cuomo voters. For Mamdani supporters, 89 percent said they were certain to vote for their candidate with 82 percent of Sliwa voters and 75 percent of Cuomo voters saying the same."
Zohran Mamdani holds a solid lead in the New York City mayoral race, surpassing 50 percent among likely voters for the first time. A Fox News poll shows Mamdani with 52 percent among likely voters and 49 percent among registered voters; Andrew Cuomo stands at 28 percent and Curtis Sliwa at 14 percent (likely voters) and 13 percent (registered). The poll surveyed 1,003 registered voters from October 10–14 and included incumbent Eric Adams, who received 2–3 percent. Mamdani supporters show higher enthusiasm and certainty to vote compared with Cuomo and Sliwa backers.
