NYC Mayor Election 2025 Live Updates: Zohran Mamdani Leading in Opinion Polls – Will It Translate into Votes?

NYC Mayoral Polls 2025 LIVE: New York City is heading to the polls today to elect its next mayor and determine the outcomes of key local races. Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo are scheduled to vote later in the day, while Curtis Sliwa has already cast his ballot during early voting. Zohran Mamdani, 34, secured the Democratic nomination earlier this year and is now vying against former Governor Andrew Cuomo, 67, who is running as an independent, as well as perennial Republican contender Curtis Sliwa, 71, who aims for a major upset. A victory for Mamdani would not only make him the city’s first Muslim mayor and youngest leader in decades but also thrust the democratic socialist into the national limelight, pushing his economic populist agenda onto a prominent political stage.
