US EditionMamdani, Cuomo and Sliwa Clash Bitterly During Final NYC Mayoral Debate
Cuomo and Sliwa aim to challenge front-runner Mamdani’s left-leaning policies and inexperience in the final debate of the New York City mayoral race, sources said.
- Friday evening, LaGuardia Community College in Queens hosted a 90-minute final mayoral debate featuring Zohran Mamdani, Andrew Cuomo, and Curtis Sliwa.
- With polls showing Mamdani well ahead at 52% among likely voters, betting markets Kalshi and Polymarket show him favored at 91% and 93%, pressuring Cuomo and Sliwa to shift tactics.
- Curtis Sliwa proposed reinstating the NYPD Homeless Outreach Unit and adding 5,000 officers, while Zohran Mamdani outlined rent freezes and expanded housing investments, and Andrew Cuomo highlighted subway control plans and released an AI spoof video.
- With ballots opening soon, Ben Max said there were no 'game changers' as the final debate occurs before early voting and the November 2025 election.
- The broader contest hinges on crime, affordability and leadership, while an alliance seems unlikely as Curtis Sliwa refuses to drop out despite pressure from Andrew Cuomo, who qualified as an independent after losing the Democratic primary.
