Varias encuestas dan diferencias de más de 20 puntos a favor de Zohran Mamdani en Nueva York

Overview

  • Multiple September surveys from Marist, YouGov/CBS, Emerson and Quinnipiac place Zohran Mamdani in the mid-40% range in a four-candidate field, with Andrew Cuomo in the mid-to-high 20s and Curtis Sliwa and Eric Adams trailing.
  • Head-to-head tests are tighter, including Marist at 49%–39% for Mamdani and Siena at 48%–44%, and simulations show Cuomo gains more than Mamdani if Adams drops out.
  • The official ballot order released this week lists Mamdani and Sliwa at the top while Adams appears sixth and Cuomo eighth, and both Mamdani and Sliwa also receive additional party lines on the ballot.
  • Mamdani intensified his public profile by condemning conditions at ICE’s 26th Street facility after 11 legislators were detained while attempting an inspection.
  • Cuomo sought to recalibrate the race with an economic plan pitched to Manhattan business leaders, proposing a $1.5 billion five-borough transformation fund, 90‑day permitting reviews, tax holidays for NYC-born startups, higher MWBE participation, a global startup portal and $100 million for parks.
