Socialist Queens Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani appears to have won the 2025 Democratic primary for mayor, an outcome many did not believe was possible three months ago.
With roughly 96% of the precincts reporting, Mamdani had 43.51% of the vote (432,305), putting him roughly 70,000 votes ahead of moderate former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who had 36.42% of the vote (361,840). Cuomo conceded the race to Mamdani on Tuesday night, though the results will become official once all ranked-choice votes are tabulated because Mamdani did not receive a majority in the first round. The official results won’t be known until at least July 1.
In other big races, Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine appears to have won the heated contest to replace mayoral candidate Brad Lander as city comptroller, defeating his main rival, Brooklyn City Council Member Justin Brannan.
In
the race for New York City’s public advocate — the city government’s main elected watchdog who serves in a non-voting capacity on the City Council and sits first in the mayoral line of succession — incumbent Jumaane Williams handily turned back a challenge from Queens Assembly Member Jenifer Rajkumar.
Voters in Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan are also choosing borough president candidates and City Council seats are up for grabs across the city. Visit our sister sites for Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx for additional local election coverage.
