Overview
- Most surveys still show Zohran Mamdani ahead by double digits, yet a new AtlasIntel poll places his lead at about 6.6 points over Andrew Cuomo, with Curtis Sliwa posting his strongest showing of the cycle.
- Michael Bloomberg formally endorsed Cuomo and has steered millions to pro-Cuomo super PACs funding late advertising against Mamdani.
- Record early voting continues, with voters 60 and older forming a plurality of early ballots, and Mamdani courting seniors in the campaign’s closing days.
- Mamdani spoke with Barack Obama, whose words of support were acknowledged by the campaign, as national figures weigh the race’s broader political stakes.
- Sliwa remains in the three-way contest despite pressure to exit, and the AtlasIntel poll’s hypothetical head-to-head shows Cuomo leading Mamdani, highlighting the spoiler risk calculus.
