Poll shows some New Yorkers considering leaving city if Mamdani is elected mayor

A poll suggests nearly 1 million New Yorkers may leave if Zohran Mamdani wins, amid his plans for rent freezes and higher taxes on the wealthy.

  • On Tuesday, polls opened in New York as off-year elections test Republicans and Democrats, with opinion polls consistently placing Zohran Mamdani first in the mayoral race.
  • Amid a push to make the city more affordable, Zohran Mamdani's campaign centres on cost-of-living issues and is supported by one hundred thousand volunteers, largely millennials and Gen Zers.
  • His comments on Gaza have prompted criticism in a city with a large Jewish population, some Democrats have withheld endorsements, and Republican Curtis Sliwa ended his campaign Monday honoring violent crime victims.
  • The exchange produced immediate warnings and defiant responses from candidates as Andrew Cuomo warned Mr Mamdani's victory would see US President Donald Trump `send the National Guard here to New York`, and Zohran Mamdani said he would `not be intimidated by this president`.
  • As part of wider off-year contests, the New York mayoral race is closely watched alongside New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial races and a California ballot measure on redistricting affecting next year.
