"Yeah, I'm 1.9 percent off as of now. With some of the provisional ballots, I think it'll get a little closer. Like the mail-in stuff, there's still probably 200,000 plus votes that haven't been counted that's traditionally a little bit more of a Democrat, left-leaning sample. So we'll see. My Mamdani coalition predictions by borough, I think, were very pretty spot on."
"Cuomo's gonna double his vote total from the primary, gonna get 900,000 votes, but Mamdani added 500,000 plus from the primary, at least and that's why he's gonna win. He added them, not just in his base, but really the big thing is that he expanded his coalition into more Democrat, but also far more working-class Black and Hispanic neighborhoods: Eastern Brooklyn, Southeast Queens, the North Bronx, the South Bronx, Upper Manhattan."
Zohran Mamdani won New York City's mayoral election and became the city's first Muslim and South Asian mayor. Mamdani's total stands just over 50 percent with more than 90 percent of votes counted, and outstanding provisional and mail-in ballots could raise his share. Pre-election estimates placed Mamdani near 52.3 percent, about 1.9 points higher than current totals. Andrew Cuomo increased his vote total to roughly 900,000, Curtis Sliwa fell to around 7 percent, and Mamdani added more than 500,000 votes since the primary. Mamdani expanded support into Eastern Brooklyn, Southeast Queens, the North and South Bronx, and Upper Manhattan, drawing significant backing from working-class Black and Hispanic neighborhoods.
