Maps: See the New York Neighborhoods That Swept Mamdani to Victory

Zohran Mamdani triumphed in the New York mayoral election on Tuesday, having expanded the coalition that carried him to victory in the Democratic primary in June.

Mr. Mamdani handily defeated former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who lost in the primary before running as an independent, and Curtis Sliwa, the Republican candidate. By Wednesday morning, with an estimated 91 percent of the vote tallied, Mr. Mamdani had secured 50.4 percent of the vote, a nearly nine-point margin over Mr. Cuomo, his nearest rival.

Mr. Mamdani had a strong showing across the city among most racial and ethnic groups and most income levels.

In mostly Black precincts, voters backed him decisively — a major shift from the primary,when those areas supported Mr. Cuomo — and he expanded his lead in areas with mostly Hispanic residents. He also captured a majority of the vote in low- and middle-income areas.

Mr. Mamdani’s strongest performance was with younger voters. He carried precincts where the median registered voter’s age was 45 or younger, beating Mr. Cuomo by 30 percentage points. That mirrored his dominance among young voters in the primary.

To win as an independent, Mr. Cuomo would have had to maintain the coalitions he assembled when he ran in the primary and also secure the votes of many Republicans.

His effort to win over Republicans was bolstered by a late endorsement by President Trump, but it was not enough for Mr. Cuomo to make up the difference.

In the end, Mr. Cuomo ended up with a more than 40-point margin in precincts that Mr. Trump carried in the 2024 presidential election.

Some of the areas where Mr. Mamdani performed best were in Brooklyn. More than four out of five votes in Bushwick, Clinton Hill, Prospect Heights and East Williamsburg went to Mr. Mamdani.

Meanwhile, Mr. Cuomo’s bases of support were primarily on Staten Island, as well as in parts of Queens and in ultra-Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods of Brooklyn.

“I just thought, please don’t let this be how my life ends. I’m not ready to die. When we landed, it was a very rough landing. Like we landed and the plane jolted back up, and that caught a lot of passengers off guard. Everyone kind of like, ‘What’s going on?’ And then you hear the pilot braking, and it was like just this grinding sound.” “Everybody was shocked everywhere. There was — there’s people screaming. The plane just veered off course. I mean, it was just — it all happened so quickly, but it all felt just like a very dire situation.” “Oh, God. Oh my goodness. That’s crazy.” “People were bleeding from their nose, cuts and scrapes. I saw black eyes, all different types of facial contusions, bruising and bleeding. I was sitting by the exit door, and I opened the exit door. There was a sense of camaraderie amongst the survivors. Nobody was pushing, shoving, ‘I got to get out first.’” “The plane actually tipped back as we were leaving, as people were getting off the plane. That was when the nose kind of fell off the front of the plane, and the whole plane kind of went up to what we’d seen in all the pictures of the plane’s nose in the air.” And there was no slide when we got out. A lot of us were jumping off of the airplane wing to get down. And when I got out and I saw that the front of the plane, how destroyed it was, I just was — I was in shock.” “It was only really when I was outside of the plane, looking back at the plane, and I had seen what had happened to the cockpit, and then just like this sense of dread overcame me, where I was just like, wow, a lot of people might have just been pretty badly hurt.” “I’m grateful to the pilots who were so courageous and brave, and acted swiftly, and they saved our lives. And if it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be able to come home to my family. I’m forever indebted to them. They’re my heroes.”
