What New York Voters Said: "Not Andrew Cuomo." What Andrew Cuomo Heard: "Stay on the Ballot."
Briefly

Andrew Cuomo, despite finishing second in the Democratic primary to Zohran Mamdani, is not exiting the race for New York City mayor. He has kept his name on the November ballot and is considering his future campaign strategy. Cuomo acknowledged the need to assess the electoral landscape and address feasibility issues regarding proposed services. Mamdani's current poll standings show he could win against Mayor Eric Adams, while a hypothetical match-up with Cuomo shows a tie, indicating a competitive election ahead.
There are issues that came up-the issue of affordability, which the assemblyman spoke to with offering a lot of free services-and is that feasible? Is that realistic?
We're going to be looking at the numbers that come in from the primary, and then we have to look at the landscape in the general election.
