US EditionMamdani closes gap with Cuomo in NYC mayor’s race: Poll
- A May 23-26, 2025 Emerson College Polling survey shows Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani closing the gap against former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary.
- Mamdani's rise follows sustained polling momentum and a Justice Department investigation into Cuomo's alleged false testimony about his COVID-19 pandemic decisions.
- The ranked-choice poll reveals Cuomo leading with 54.4% to Mamdani’s 45.6% after ten rounds, reflecting Mamdani’s gains fueled by nearly twice as many second-choice votes.
- Mamdani gained 23 points and narrowed Cuomo's lead from 12 to 9 points, with Cuomo maintaining strong support among Black voters and those over 50, while Mamdani leads younger voters and whites.
- With four weeks remaining before the June 24 primary, Mamdani’s surge suggests a tightening race that will test Cuomo’s ability to maintain support and win over second-choice voters.
