Mamdani leading NYC mayor race by 19 points: Poll [View all]

Zohran Mamdani leads in the New York City mayoral race by almost 20 points in a five-person field as opposition to the state lawmaker’s bid continues to be split among multiple candidates, a new poll shows.

The Siena College poll released Tuesday shows Mamdani leading by 19 points over his next-closest opponent, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, 44 percent to 25 percent. Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa was considerably behind them with 12 percent, followed by incumbent Mayor Eric Adams with 7 percent.

Cuomo, who lost the Democratic primary to Mamdani, and Adams, who passed on the primary entirely, both are still registered Democrats but are pursuing independent bids for mayor.

The poll was taken among registered New York City voters.
