Times/Siena Poll: Mamdani Leads NYC Mayor’s Race, Two-Way With Cuomo Would Be Tight

The survey shows a commanding four-way advantage for Zohran Mamdani, with opposition working to consolidate the field.

New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani speaks during a Fighting Oligarchy town hall on September 6, 2025, in New York City.

Overview

  • Mamdani holds 46% in the four-candidate poll, with Andrew Cuomo at 24%, Curtis Sliwa at 15%, and Eric Adams at 9%.
  • A hypothetical head-to-head shows Mamdani at 48% to Cuomo’s 44%, reflecting a much closer race if Adams and Sliwa exit.
  • Cuomo met with more than 80 business leaders in Manhattan to rally support for his independent bid and to press consolidation efforts.
  • Reports say Trump advisers discussed offering federal roles to Adams and Sliwa to clear the field; Trump denies personal involvement and both candidates say they’re staying in.
  • Poll respondents rate Mamdani strongest on affordability and many, especially younger voters, say he best addressed the Israel–Palestinian conflict; some top New York Democrats have not endorsed him.
