Zohran Mamdani's Mayoral Race
In the New York City mayoral race, Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist, faces 67-year-old former Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo, running as an independent.
Mamdani has led by double digits over Cuomo, with Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, 71, a distant third in most opinion polls. Over 3 million people voted early in Virginia, New York, and New Jersey, exceeding the totals from four years ago.
In New York City, 735,000 ballots were cast, according to the city elections board, more than four times the number in 2021. Mamdani's campaign proposes left-wing policies, including freezing rents for nearly a million apartments, taxing the wealthy, and making the city's bus service free.
"We are on the brink of making history in our city, on the brink of saying goodbye to a politics of the past,"
said Mamdani at a press conference after voting.
