From Fox News: New York City Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani maintains a hefty lead in the race, according to a recent Siena poll of registered voters.
Mamdani is polling at 44%, and former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who’s running as an independent, is at 25%. Republican Curtis Sliwa is at 12%, and incumbent Mayor Eric Adams is at 7%.
“While City Democrats favor Mamdani over Cuomo 53-32%, with single digits for the other two, more than two-thirds of City Republicans support Sliwa. City independent voters are more closely divided, with 30% supporting Mamdani and 20% supporting Adams,” Siena pollster Steven Greenberg said in a press release on Tuesday.
The press release by the Siena College poll further quotes Greenberg as saying:
“City voters under 35 are overwhelmingly supporting Mamdani, as are a plurality of voters 35-54, however, voters 55 and older back Cuomo over Mamdani, 38-32%.
“Mamdani, included in the Siena poll for the first time, has a 46-32% favorability rating with New York City voters and a negative 28-37% favorability rating among voters statewide. Cuomo has an underwater favorability rating with City voters, 37-54%, and an even worse 29-61% favorability rating with statewide voters, the worst ever favorability rating for Cuomo in a Siena poll. In fact, among Democrats statewide, Cuomo’s favorability rating is 36-56%, down from 51-39% in March.
“Adams is also underwater with voters in the City, 30-58%, statewide 22-51%, and among Democrats statewide 22-59%. Sliwa has a 26-30% statewide favorability rating, and 30-42% in the City.”

DML News App founder Dennis Michael Lynch warned, “NYC will collapse in January 2026. Unrecoverable — it will never get back on track after Mamdani. It will be the Middle East with a subway. I predicted this sort of thing 15 years ago, people said I was crazy.”
Kevin O’Leary compares Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral campaign to Kamala Harris’ presidential run:
“It’s starting to smell a little bit like the sixth week of the general election when Kamala Harris refused to put out any policy… I’m not getting any policy.” pic.twitter.com/0z47D66S1W
