Find Your Pollsite and View a Sample Ballot
You’ll see that the sample ballot list elections for more than just the Mayor, the Public Advocate and the City Comptroller, all city-wide offices. (Important note: Two of the candidates still listed on the sample ballot, Eric Adams and Jim Walden have dropped out of the race. Two others, as newspaper accounts put it, “have not raised significant funds or polled among leading candidates.” The leading candidates are:
Zohran Kwame Mamdani, Democratic and Working Families parties
Curtis A. Sliwa, Republican and Protect Animals parties
Andrew M. Cuomo, Fight and Deliver party
My sample ballot also lists elections for
Justice of the Supreme Court for the 1st Judicial District (4 to be elected)
District Attorney New York
Borough President New York
Member of the City Council 3rd Council District

There are also six ballot proposals. For more details about these proposals — including the pros and cons by those who support and oppose them, check NYC Votes’ Summaries.
