"Cuomo, who resigned as governor in 2021 amid multiple scandals and who is running as an independent candidate in the general election after losing the primary, had 33% support in the survey, which was conducted Oct. 3-7. Guardian Angels co-founder Curtis Sliwa, who for a second straight election is the Republican mayoral nominee in the Democratic-dominated city, stood at 15% in the poll."
"The tightening contest underscores how Cuomo's independent bid continues to draw support from disaffected Democrats following Mayor Eric Adams' withdrawal. Mamdani, the 33-year-old democratic socialist state lawmaker from the New York City borough of Queens who shocked the political world in June with his convincing win over Cuomo and nine other candidates to capture the Democratic Party's mayoral nomination, stands at 46% support among likely voters in the most recent survey in the race, from Quinnipiac University."
Zohran Mamdani leads the New York City mayoral contest with 46% support among likely voters in a Quinnipiac University poll conducted Oct. 3-7. Former Governor Andrew Cuomo, running as an independent after losing the Democratic primary and resigning in 2021 amid scandals, registered 33% in the survey. Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa stood at 15%. The poll was conducted after Mayor Eric Adams withdrew, and Cuomo appears to have picked up a substantial share of Adams’ supporters, reducing Mamdani’s margin from a larger lead in early September to a smaller double-digit advantage heading into Election Day.
