A New York Times/Siena poll found that likely New York City voters were more aligned with the views of Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani on Israel’s war in Gaza than with those of former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo.
Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York backed Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor, in a New York Times essay. Her support comes as Democrats are starting to coalesce around him.
President Trump said on Friday that he believed Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York City, would win, likening that outcome to a “rebellion.”
Michael R. Bloomberg, who spent $8 million trying to torpedo Zohran Mamdani’s Democratic primary bid, advised him on how to fill key City Hall positions.
Mayor Eric Adams told a prominent New York City business group that if a private poll showed he had no path to re-election, he would reconsider bowing out.
The fate of Mayor Eric Adams’s re-election bid has become a fixation for New York City’s political and business classes, as the race enters its final eight weeks.
Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee in the New York City mayoral race, is way ahead of his three rivals, but his lead would diminish considerably if the field shrank to a two-man race.
