Cuomo will stay on NYC mayor’s ballot after conceding Democratic primary to Mamdani, sources tell CNN
- On June 27, CNN sources confirmed Cuomo will stay on the ballot as an independent on the 'Fight & Deliver' line, refusing to withdraw by the Friday deadline despite his primary defeat.
- Having qualified for the 'Fight & Deliver' line in May, Cuomo’s team plans to stay on the ballot, believing the broader electorate may prefer him over primary voters, with withdrawal due by Friday.
- Polls show Mamdani leading the primary with 43.5%, while a four-way general election poll ties him with Cuomo at around 39%.
- Cuomo's decision to stay on the ballot could split the liberal vote in the plurality-based November election featuring Mamdani, Adams, Sliwa, and others.
- Beyond the primary, Mamdani’s victory energizes progressive voters while establishment leaders fear a vote split with Cuomo on the ballot.
