Overview

• Zohran Mamdani leads general election polls with roughly one-third of voter support as the Democratic nominee.
• Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Eric Adams have both launched independent campaigns, raising concerns of a fractured anti-Mamdani vote.
• Wealthy donors and PACs have committed tens of millions of dollars to oppose Mamdani but remain divided over whether to back Cuomo or Adams.
• Media personality Bo Dietl and former Mayor Rudy Giuliani joined forces to raise $10 million through an outside group aimed at defeating Mamdani.
• The NRCC and NRSC have aired national ads linking House Democrats to Mamdani’s democratic socialist platform, and senior party leaders have refrained from endorsement.
