Voting concludes Tuesday for elections in a number of states and localities, and perhaps the highest-profile contest is one that was only scheduled a few months ago. A special election in California allows the state's voters to weigh in on what is now a cross-country redistricting battle between the two major parties ahead of next year's midterm elections. Here are details on that contest and three others we're watching this Election Day.

He said: Mandami is a job-killing socialist, and he's not a Democrat, right? He shouldn't be in the Democratic Party. He's an admitted socialist. He should be in the Socialist Party. And as good of a campaign as he's run, I have very strong disagreements with his views, whether you're talking about government-run grocery stores, obviously his continued anti-Semitic rhetoric, refusal to condemn phrases like globalizing Intifada, which is a call for the killing of the Jewish people.

This is our year. This is our time.

What if the algorithm isn't just serving what you like, but shaping what you will like?

So, listen, I think that there's a lot of Republicans that are weighing into this race from afar, saying this is going to be great for the Republican Party to hang it around candidates in purple states later on. But there's people in New York here waking up to, this is really serious. This is a serious moment as you close in on Election Day.

A lot of people are saying if you're in New York, the place to go for solace and peace and the chance- and promise has been Florida. The numbers don't lie. What has his candidacy since he won the nomination, two weeks away from the election, what has it done for Florida real estate? Kilmeade asked.

"He never has had a job. On his resume it said he interned for his mother. This is not a job for a first-timer."

Austin who has been photographed with President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the White House Oval Office also urged Republican New Yorkers to back Cuomo as an independent instead of Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, arguing Sliwa was not capable of defeating Mamdani in the race.

That's right - just more than 1 million New Yorkers voted in the primary, out of more than 5 million registered voters. There are about 8.5 million New Yorkers total, which means only one-eighth participated in that election. Of that one-eighth, 573,169 New Yorkers voted for democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani. In other words, he won just 1/16 of the total population of the city.

I will not be a mayor like Mayor [Eric] Adams who will call you to figure out how to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own. I will, however, be a mayor who is ready to speak at any time to lower the cost of living. That's the way I'm going to lead this city.

Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani and independent candidate Andrew Cuomo lobbed attacks at each other during the first of two general election debates in the New York City mayoral race on Thursday, as Cuomo seeks to chip away at his opponent's comfortable lead. It was the first time the candidates were back on the debate stage since Mayor Eric Adams exited the race in September. Despite the fact that the debate also included Republican Curtis Sliwa, the fighting between the New York State assemblymember and the former New York governor took center stage at the event, which was hosted by NBC 4 New York/WNBC, Telemundo 47/WNJU and Politico.

LeadershipCuomo, who left the New York governor's mansion in August 2021 amid sexual harassment allegations, was quick to attack Mamdani, saying the New York assemblyman's inexperience makes him unfit to oversee a 300,000-employee city workforce and a multi-billion-dollar budget. "This is no job for on-the-job training," he said. "And if you look at the failed mayors they're ones that have no management experience. Don't do it again."
