Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is inching up on Zohran Mamdani with Republican Curtis Sliwa not far behind in a new poll released Saturday, with Cuomo climbing to within 7 percentage points of the socialist New York Assemblyman frontrunner in the mayor’s race.
A new Atlas Intel poll has Mamdani leading the field with 41 percent, followed by Cuomo, who is running as an independent, at 34 percent.
Sliwa is at 24 percent.
That’s a tighter race than the results other public polls are capturing.
Mamdani leads by an average of 14.5% in the latest Real Clear Politics polling average, putting him on a path to walk into Gracie Mansion.
The average has him at 45 percent, followed by Cuomo at 31 percent and Sliwa at 17 percent.
The Atlas poll has a margin error of 3 percentage points.
The poll comes a day after Cuomo campaigned in Brighton Beach and told supporters there is “no way” Sliwa can win, and saying he “can only make Zohran Mamdani win.”
Election day is Tuesday, and early voters have already begun flocking to the polls.
