More than 223,000 New Yorkers voted in the first three days of early voting, putting turnout on pace for the highest since 1993 and skewing older than the primary. A Suffolk University poll shows Andrew M. Cuomo narrowing Zohran Mamdani’s lead but still trailing by 10 points, while Curtis Sliwa polls in the high teens and refuses to exit, imperiling Cuomo’s chances. The race has turned caustic, with accusations of Islamophobia and antisemitism, a viral defense by Mamdani, and Gov. Kathy Hochul heckled at a Queens rally. The candidates also clash over mayoral control of schools.
