The new results <\/a>suggest a late surge for Cuomo, who has gained support among Hispanic voters and independents.

What they’re saying:<\/p>\n

“There is one person in New York City whose voters could have an outsized impact on the outcome,” said David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center. “That person isn\u2019t Mayor Eric Adams, Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Senator Chuck Schumer, or any New York billionaire. It\u2019s Republican Curtis Sliwa, whose voters hold the 11% blocking Cuomo from winning the race.”<\/p>\n

Meet the candidates Curtis Sliwa – Republican \"Republican <\/p>\n

The backstory:<\/p>\n

Returning to the mayoral race after his 2021 defeat to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, Curtis Sliwa brings his tough-on-crime message back to the Republican forefront. The Guardian Angels founder and outspoken radio host is banking on his core base in conservative outer-borough neighborhoods.<\/p>\n

He has focused his campaign on public order and community-focused housing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Andrew Cuomo – Independent \"Cuomo <\/p>\n

After conceding defeat in the Democratic primary, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has officially qualified to run as an independent in the general election, staging a late comeback that could reshape the race. Cuomo is presenting himself as a steady hand with deep experience, seeking to appeal to moderates, independents and disaffected Democrats wary of both Mamdani\u2019s progressivism and Sliwa\u2019s conservatism.<\/p>\n

He has focused his campaign on restoring public safety and affordability. \u00a0He calls for adding 5,000 officers to the NYPD and increasing patrols in subways and retail corridors.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Zohran Mamdani – Democrat \"Mamdani <\/p>\n

At 33, Zohran Mamdani<\/a> stands out as a Democratic Socialist and a rising star in New York City politics. As a state assemblyman, Mamdani surged ahead on a fiercely progressive platform promising rent freezes, fare-free public transit, universal childcare, and an unprecedented push for public housing expansion.<\/p>\n

His campaign is centered on housing, affordability and equity.<\/p>\n
