New York City voters are likely to select a new mayor on Nov. 4, in what is shaping up to be the city\u2019s most competitive general election race in over a decade. The turnout for the first three days of early voting is already far higher than the entire early tally for the 2021 race. It\u2019s also garnered interest from well-known political figures like Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Senator Bernie Sanders and President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
Three candidates<\/a> are running to replace Mayor Eric Adams, who ended<\/a> his reelection bid in September (though he remains on the ballot): There\u2019s the red beret wearing Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa. There\u2019s Andrew Cuomo, the ex-New York governor plotting his political comeback as an independent after losing in the Democratic primary. And there\u2019s Zohran Mamdani, the 34-year-old Queens assemblyman who has catapulted from relative obscurity to the Democratic nominee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York City voters are likely to select a new mayor on Nov. 4, in what is shaping…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20157,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[5209,5057,98,288,3339,5869,5862,7379,9,24,55,54,56,3909,122,5863],"class_list":["post-20156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-alexandria","tag-bernie-sanders","tag-brooklyn","tag-business","tag-cities","tag-citylab","tag-donald-john-trump","tag-jamaica","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-new-york-city-headlines","tag-new-york-city-news","tag-ny","tag-pennsylvania","tag-queens","tag-u-s-republicans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20156\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
