Zohran Mamdani is significantly narrowing the polling gap against former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the upcoming New York City mayoral election, according to a Data for Progress survey. Just two percentage points separate the two candidates in the final head-to-head round, reflecting a potential comeback for Mamdani, especially after receiving an endorsement from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. This endorsement is pivotal, as Mamdani has struggled with name recognition compared to Cuomo. Previous polls had shown a much larger gap in favor of Cuomo, indicating a shift in voter sentiment as the election approaches.
A recent poll reveals that Zohran Mamdani is gaining ground against Andrew Cuomo, coming within a striking margin of error in the New York City mayoral race.
The Data for Progress survey indicates that as left-leaning candidates are eliminated in ranked choice voting, Cuomo's lead diminishes, showing a final head-to-head close call.
