Democratic mayoral primary winner and state Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is leading the pack of candidates to potentially govern New York City, a new poll this month shows. Newsweek reached out to several political analysts via email for comment after publication Thursday.

Bill Ackman and Rev. Al Sharpton have urged Andrew Cuomo to remove his name from the New York City mayoral ballot in order to allow a one-on-one race between Eric Adams and Zohran Mamdani.

A poll conducted Tuesday night asked New York City voters whether Andrew Cuomo is a viable candidate in a general election for mayor after getting trounced by socialist Zohran Mamdani in the Democratic primary.
