The busy Democratic primary in the New York mayor’s office is reaching its climax as New Yorkers headed to the polls on Tuesday, June 24th, voted for one of almost 12 Democrats.
On June 24th, voters will be expected to have their first choice for the mayor, but nominees will be able to win more than 50% of the votes. This requires you to declare the winner in the first round. So the ranked choice voting system begins, eliminating candidates with the least vote in a few rounds. The process is expected to take place until July 1st.
Two candidates, state legislator Zoran Mamdani and former governor Andrew Cuomo, surpassed the rest, with the Emerson University poll released on Monday morning, showing that Mamdani can bring out an unlikely, rich victory on Tuesday.
Like New York’s Democratic base, interests are massive on Tuesday.
Here’s how to follow Tuesday’s results live:
