Gamblers on two legal wagering sites have already made up their minds about who the next mayor of the City of New York will be. <\/p>\n
And the results aren\u2019t even close. <\/p>\n
On the Kalshi betting site,<\/a> 83% of gamblers are betting that Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani will win the election. <\/p>\n Former three-term Gov. Andrew Cuomo comes in a distant second to Mamdani on the Kalshi site, with just 10% of gamblers thinking that Cuomo will become the 111th mayor of the City of New York. <\/p>\n Trailing Cuomo is incumbent Mayor Eric Adams. Just 5% of those placing wagers on the race think that he will retain his seat in City Hall. <\/p>\n Rounding out the top four on the Kalshi site is GOP candidate Curtis Sliwa, with 2% of gamblers thinking that the Guardian Angels founder will be the next mayor. <\/p>\n The results are just as overwhelming on another major gambling site. <\/p>\n On the Polymarket site,<\/a> 84% of those placing wagers are betting that Mamdani, a democratic socialist assemblyman from Queens, will be the next leader of the five boroughs. <\/p>\n Cuomo, who has also served as state attorney general, is behind Mamdani on the Polymarket site, with 10% of gamblers saying that he will be the next mayor. <\/p>\n Adams, whose administration has been newly engulfed in scandal, is backed by 4% of wagerers on the Polymarket site. <\/p>\n And Sliwa, who lost the 2021 City Hall race to Adams, is backed by 1% of gamblers on the site. <\/p>\n Mamdani shocked the political world by besting Cuomo in the Democratic mayoral primary earlier this year. <\/p>\n The mayoral election is slated for Nov. 4. <\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
