MSNBC's Rev. Al Sharpton urges Andrew Cuomo to withdraw from New York City mayoral race, suggesting a one-on-one contest would better serve residents.

Betting sites believe Zohran Mamdani is the clear favourite to win this year’s New York mayoral election, but Eric Adams still has a chance of retaining the post. New Yorkers will head to the polls in November to vote for a new mayor, and Adams will defend the seat he won in 2021.

This drew the ire of President Donald Trump, who falsely claimed that Mamdani, who moved to the US at seven and was naturalized in 2018, was in the country illegally. Representative Andy Ogles hurled Islamophobic epithets at Mamdani on X and called for him to be denaturalized and kicked out of the country.

By January, state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Assembly Members Zohran Mamdani and Harvey Epstein could all be serving in city government, triggering special elections to replace them in the state Legislature.

A vote count under New York City's ranked-choice voting system extended Mamdani's lead to 12%, five points higher than his lead in first-choice votes.

Tuesday’s release includes ranked choice tabulations of all in-person votes and mail-in votes received and processed by Election Day. The BOE will continue to release tabulations for any remaining ballots, including cured affidavit ballots, on a weekly basis.

Governor Kathy Hochul is still leading her Democratic primary competition, according to a poll of New York voters.

Boca Mayor Scott Singer says a win by Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayoral election could open the gates for a surge of businesses to his city.
