A recent Public Policy Polling survey shows Democratic socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani leading former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the upcoming NYC mayoral primary. With primary day set for June 24, early voting has started on June 14. Mamdani has gained momentum from an affordability platform, supported by campaign spokesperson Andrew Epstein's assertion about grassroots efforts. The poll, conducted from June 6 to 7, indicates 35% for Mamdani against Cuomo’s 31%. However, it does not address rankings from New York City’s ranked-choice voting system, adding complexity to the race.
All gas, no breaks," wrote Mamdani on X on Wednesday of the poll results.
When you run a disciplined, grassroots campaign relentlessly focused on an agenda to address the crises in working people's lives, these are the results," Andrew Epstein, spokesperson for Mamdani, told Politico.
Wow. Just wow," wrote Mehdi Hasan on X regarding the poll results.
Everyone who is serious about defeating Andrew Cuomo needs to endorse Zohran Mamdani immediately," wrote New York Democratic state Sen. Jabari Brisport.
