New York City Mayor and New Jersey Governor 2025

Emerson Polling

NEW YORK CITY 2025

The final Emerson College Polling/PIX11/The Hill survey of the New York City mayoral election finds Zohran Mamdani with a 25-point lead over Andrew Cuomo, 50% to 25%, while 21% support Curtis Sliwa, and 4% are undecided. Since last month, Mamdani's support increased seven percentage points, from 43% to 50%, Cuomo lost three points, 28% to 25%, and Sliwa gained eleven points, from 10% to 21%.

"Mamdani appears to have built a coalition across key demographics, increasing his margin among Black voters since last month, from 50% to 71%, whereas Cuomo dropped ten points among Black voters since September,” Kimball noted. “Mamdani continues to have a base of young voters; 69% of voters under 50 support him, whereas 37% of voters over 50 support Mamdani, while 31% support Cuomo and 28% Silwa.”

Those who have already voted support Mamdani by a wider 33-point margin, 58% to 25%, while those who have yet to vote break for Mamdani by 19, 45% to 26%.

Zohran Mamdani has a 52% favorable rating among New York City likely voters, 35% have a favorable view of Andrew Cuomo, and 27% Curtis Sliwa. Forty-one percent have an unfavorable view of Mamdani, 58% have an unfavorable view of Cuomo, and 55% have an unfavorable view of Sliwa.

Regarding the top issue for voters facing the United States, 30% find threats to democracy to be most important, 25% the economy, and 14% housing affordability.

Zohran para la ciudad de Nueva York

It isn't often that a candidate for political office presents a gag reel in his appeal for support...

When the Times of London reported that former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio had misgivings about frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's policies, it seemed unlikely, since de Blasio had previously endorsed the Democratic candidate. It was unlikely — in fact, it wasn't true. In a remarkable snafu by The Times, journalist Bevan Hurley had emailed someone he believed to be de Blasio, but was in fact someone else, and then rushed to print the explosive story. De Blasio demanded a retraction (which he got), reiterated his support for Mamdani, and told @Semafor that he had never had an experience like this in 25 years of public life. As for the fake de Blasio? “You are correct. It was me. The real Bill DeBlasio,” the person who controls the email address responded to a message from Semafor, before ghosting the publication. Here's more on how it all unfolded.

One week to go until the New York City mayoral election and the media have spotted a "scandal." On Friday, Zohran Mamdani made a speech highlighting the Islamophobia Muslims faced in the city after the 9/11 attacks. The Democratic candidate mentioned an aunt who wore a hijab, who no longer felt safe taking the subway after September 11. The New York Post and Fox News quickly found Mamdani's aunt, who doesn't wear a head covering, and accused him of lying. Today, Mamdani explained to the media he was referring to his father's late cousin, who he called "aunt." Here's more from @thenewrepublic.

#ZohranMamdani - Reimagining NYC Through Safety and Affordability

I've seen #MamdaniForMayorNYC engage this personably in interviews before -- but almost exclusively on independent media venues with much younger hosts, pitched to a younger audience. I've rarerly seen him engage in quite this way on more venerable, mainstream media platforms, targeted to an older demographic.
He seems to me to relish appearing on The Daily Show, sitting across from Jon Stewart. He explains things more fully here.

Polls always tighten days before Election Day.

However, #Mamdani could lose to #Cuomo if younger people fail to show up at the polls to vote.

Early voting 🗳️ once again seems to be dominated by people over 50 years.

👉🏾 New poll has #AndrewCuomo closing the gap with #ZohranMamdani in #NYC mayor's race https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/andrew-cuomo-zohran-mamdani-nyc-mayoral-election-poll/

#ZohranMamdani’s Massive Rally Delivers Energy, Hope, & Community

Breaking down the huge NYC Is Not For Sale rally at Forest Hills stadium in Queens, with clips from AOC, Bernie Sanders, and Zohran Mamdani. A huge 'tax the rich' chant during Kathy Hochul's speech, and the positive reaction to Mamdani from MSNBC's Joe Scarborough.

I am devoting a lot of attention to last night's rally because I believe that, if things continue to move as I hope they will, it will be seen, years from now, as an historic event.

Our work has only just begun’: Mamdani, Sanders and AOC rally the faithful ahead of NYC mayoral election

Thousands pack Forest Hills stadium on Sunday night, voicing their excitement and hope for change

Many there described the event as more than just a rally. It was a moment of unity, frustration and optimism all at once. For Hayley Miller, 23, of Briarwood, the motivation to attend was simple: “I’m here because the government sucks, to be honest with you … and I feel like we should make a change as a country, and New York City is definitely the place to start that.”

#ZohranMamdani: We Can Win Freedom for All

At a rally last night in Queens, New York, with Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Zohran Mamdani addressed a crowd of 13,000: “For too long, freedom has belonged only to those who can afford to buy it.”

Jacobin Magazine has published the full text of that speech.

TAX THE RICH: Kathy Hochul HECKLED At Fiery Zohran Rally

Pegged to a somewhat antagonistic response to Kathy Hochul at last night's New York Is Not For Sale rally, this is an interesting analysis of where the future of the Democratic party may lie.

You can get an idea of the direction in which many people hope it may lie from this comment on Youtube:

Imagine Hochul explaining why she won't let Zohran make buses free or housing affordable to that crowd. Now imagine they all had pitchforks.
