A recent poll indicates that Democratic socialist candidates, City Comptroller Brad Lander and state Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, are gaining ground in the New York City mayoral race, with Lander capturing 31% and Mamdani 18% in ranked choice voting. However, they remain behind former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who is projected to win with 51%. The poll reflects voters’ discontent with current Mayor Eric Adams, with high negative ratings, and also uncovers skepticism about Cuomo due to his controversial past.
"This is much closer than it looks at the end. Really, all they have to do is knock two points off Cuomo, then Mamdani gets knocked out and then Cuomo and Lander are neck-and-neck."
"84% of those surveyed would not vote for Adams and nearly 60% said his administration has been 'chaotic' and that the city hasn't improved in his first term."
