Cuomo Has Slight Edge in the Polls

Lakshya Jain says the polling average has Andrew Cuomo leading the Democratic mayoral primary in New York City by three percentage points — but that’s largely due to a late Yale Poll/YouGov survey that gave him a big 14-point lead.

“This is by no means an insurmountable or even an especially strong lead. It’s basically a coin-flip. Cuomo is weakest among high-information voters, which makes a lot of sense when you consider how his gubernatorial tenure ended. Low-information voters and minorities tend to favor him. If the primary electorate is whiter or more engaged than what pollsters have modeled, he would easily lose.”

voter suppression like North Carolina and Georgia.

And democratic voters will be voting for two reasons: To elect their choice of nominee and to elect someone who will prevail over Eric Adams and Curtis Sliwa.
