A new Gotham Polling/AARP survey shows former Gov. Andrew Cuomo could be in a dead heat with Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani if Republican Curtis Sliwa drops out of the NYC mayoral race. With Sliwa out, Mamdani leads 44.6% to Cuomo’s 40.7% — within the margin of error. With all three candidates running, Mamdani still holds a strong lead: 43.2% to Cuomo’s 28.9% and Sliwa’s 19.4%.
