Mamdani and Cuomo face off as New York City chooses new mayor, while Sliwa hopes for an upset
- On Tuesday night, the New York City mayoral election closes with Zohran Mamdani, 34-year-old Democratic state Assembly member, leading with 40 percent in the Atlas poll taken through October 30.
- Announcing his campaign in October 2024, Zohran Mamdani started from one percent support and expanded his coalition through a 12-mile walk across Manhattan and Instagram outreach.
- The New York Times reported `Turnout among younger age groups lagged early in the week, with about 80,000 people under 35 voting from Sunday to Thursday`, before a surge that added over 100,000 young voters on the final day of early voting.
- Earlier this month, President Donald Trump threatened to slash federal funds for New York City if Mamdani wins and signaled he might deploy the National Guard after recent deployments in other cities.
- The Democratic establishment's hesitancy and billionaire donors' last-ditch funding did not halt Mamdani's advance, sparking the Mamdani effect that inspires young progressives nationally.
