Mamdani, Cuomo neck and neck in NYC mayoral race if Curtis Sliwa drops out: poll

New York City Mayoral Race Tightens

A recent poll suggests that if Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa drops out, Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani and Independent candidate Andrew Cuomo would be neck and neck in the NYC mayoral race.

According to the poll conducted by Gotham Polling and the city AARP, Mamdani would lead with 44.6% and Cuomo would follow closely with 40.7% if Sliwa were to exit the race.

However, a significant 15% of voters over the age of 50 remain undecided.

Notably, Cuomo's support among older voters increased by nine points in August.

Currently, with all three candidates still in the running, Mamdani leads his opponents by double digits, as reported by the New York Post.
