Zohran Mamdani continues to be the frontrunner in New York’s mayoral race, with polling suggesting he could be headed toward a commanding victory.
Betting platform Polymarket shows that Mamdani currently has a 44 percent chance of winning 50 to 60 percent of the vote. If such a result occurs, Mamdani could be in store for a landslide victory over his main opponent, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
But polls show that while a double-digit victory is on the cards for Mamdani, a landslide is less likely.
Why It Matters
The New York City mayoral race has drawn national attention as voters prepare to choose a leader who will set the city’s direction on key issues, including housing affordability, public safety, and relations with both President Donald Trump and the Democratic establishment.
