NYC Mayoral results: Mamdani leads Cuomo 43.5-36.3 (90% in)

Last edited Tue Jun 24, 2025, 10:52 PM - Edit history (5)

Lander has 11.4 percent of the vote. If this sticks and the vast majority of Landers voters went to Mamdani (they cross endorsed each other), then Mamdani likely wins. Maybe easily.

Also since The Working Families Party endorsed him, he is also likely to get most of Adrienne Adams votes.

Update: Andrew Cuomo Concedes To Zohran Mamdani

NYC Mayoral results: Mamdani leads Cuomo 43.5-36.3 (90% in) (Original Post) SSJVegeta Jun 24 OP
I hope the best candidate wins..Adams was a disaster.nt helpisontheway Jun 24 #1
Cuomo could lose the primary and still go into the general election as an independent candidate FakeNoose Jun 24 #2
True, but given how hes doing in this primary, i wonder if hes even willing to do that at this point. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #3
On May 6, CBS reported that Cuomo had filed both as a Democrat and Independent rpannier Jun 24 #24
I would guess whether this holds or not depends on where the already counted votes came from. Wiz Imp Jun 24 #4
Yeah. Most votes are in looks like. I also imagine Cuomo should be doing a lot better in places like Staten Island. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #5
I see it's up to 70% now and the lead is holding. Wiz Imp Jun 24 #6
This is nuts. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #7
He doesnt seem to fall much below an 8% lead when he does SSJVegeta Jun 24 #8
Okay its starting to narrow a bit, but not sure its significant enough with so few votes left to count. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #11
Absolute collapse of Cuomo's numbers Prairie Gates Jun 24 #9
Yup. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #10
Sounds good! elleng Jun 24 #23
Mamdani looks like he has the direct vote locked up (7.8% lead with 84% in). Wiz Imp Jun 24 #12
Agreed. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #13
At this point, Cuomo would need at least 73% of the outstanding votes to catch up - that's not going to happen. Wiz Imp Jun 24 #14
Is it just me or does Cuomos lead in the Bronx seem surprisingly high? SSJVegeta Jun 24 #16
It could be because Democrats have a 10 to 1 registration advantage in the Bronx Wiz Imp Jun 24 #17
Thats a great explanation. SSJVegeta Jun 24 #19
What do you think Mamdanis vote will be in the Bronx and Staten Island after the final round? SSJVegeta Wednesday #26

We've seen the same thing happen in other "blue" cities.

He's on track to get absolutely smoked by Mamdani and those who cross endorsed Mamdani.

Regardless, if Mamdani can maintain a lead on the first round, then I think he likely wins once the ranked choice kicks in. We shall see.

Cuomo was up 20% just two weeks ago and was predicted to win in a walk.

Just further evidence that democratic populism is the perfect antidote to fascism and corruption.

I'd say at this point, it is at least 90% likely Mamdani wins the nomination.

Iw as thinking if he could just keep his deficit against Cuomo to Single digits, he'd have a good shot at winning in the last round. But at this point, he might basically wrap up the nomination tonight considering where the remaining ranked choice votes are coming from and who endorsed him.

and in Staten Island it is very close to 1 to 1. I would guess there are higher percentage of "conservative" Democrats in the Bronx, while in Staten Island those folks are more likely to be registered as Republicans.

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa.

It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;)

It's so New York.

And the right wing media are going to go apeshit over him.

They'll squawk about anything to distract from the non-stop failures of the GOP/MAGA party.

But Cuomo should never again have a seat at the table.

In November, as always, I'll vote a straight Democratic ticket. Anything is better than a Reublican.
