"The Suffolk survey has the former governor cutting Mamdani's lead roughly in half compared its last poll in September, which had Cuomo at 25%, Mamdani at 45%, Sliwa at 9% and Mayor Eric Adams at 8%. The latest poll of 500 likely general election voters, conducted from Oct. 23-26, shows Cuomo with 34% compared to the democratic socialist Mamdani's 44%."
"Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa continues to garner a fraction of the vote, and that could ultimately cost Cuomo the mayor's seat. The Oct. 27 survey appears to be consistent with other polls taken since Adams' exit, showing that most of Cuomo's boost may have come from Mayor Eric Adams' exit from the race last month. Adams is still listed on the ballot even though he suspended his campaign and endorsed Cuomo last week."
"Nevertheless, the Cuomo team said on Monday that the Suffolk University poll shows the tide is turning in their favor. Today's Suffolk University poll shows exactly what we're seeing on the ground: This is a two-man race, momentum is on our side, and the more New Yorkers learn about how dangerously inexperienced Zohran Mamdani is and about his extremist agenda the less they like what they see, Cuomo"
A Suffolk University poll of 500 likely general election voters conducted Oct. 23-26 finds Zohran Mamdani at 44%, Andrew Cuomo at 34%, and Republican Curtis Sliwa at 11%, with 7% undecided and a +/-4.4% margin of error. The poll indicates Cuomo has cut Mamdani’s lead roughly in half since a September survey that showed Cuomo at 25% and Mamdani at 45%. The results follow Mayor Eric Adams’ suspension and endorsement of Cuomo, though Adams remains on the ballot. The Cuomo campaign called the contest a two-man race and attributed its gains to shifting voter perceptions of Mamdani.
