CBS News exit poll shows affordability top of mind<\/p>\n

A CBS News exit poll finds cost of living is the top issue for voters, ahead of crime.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Three in four New York City voters say the cost of housing is a major problem. Most call crime a problem, but fewer than half call it a “major” one.<\/p>\n

A lot of this campaign has been defined by “change vs. experience” and that is reflected in what voters want in their next mayor. Those traits are at the top of a list of what the city’s voters are looking for in a candidate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Democrat Zohran Mandami’s voters are more likely to be looking for someone who will bring needed change, while those backing life-long Democrat turned independent candidate Andrew Cuomo are looking for someone with experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Events overseas have played a role in this local campaign race. Most New York City voters overall say the candidates’ positions on Israel were a factor in their vote, although it is a major factor for fewer than half. It is more of a factor for Jewish voters.<\/p>\n

What’s on the ballot in NYC for the 2025 election<\/p>\n

New York City voters are casting their ballots in several key offices<\/a>, most notably the race for mayor<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Record early voting turnout in NYC’s mayoral election<\/p>\n

Early voting set records for a non-presidential election<\/a> in the city, according to the New York City Board of Elections.\u00a0<\/p>\n

More than 164,000 voters hit the polls during the first weekend<\/a> of early voting in the city alone, vastly outpacing the 31,176 votes cast during the same period in the 2021 mayoral election. That trend line continued throughout the early voting period.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The BOE reported a total of 735,317 early voting check-ins over nine days, compared to 169,879 in the 2021 race.<\/p>\n

Initial data showed voters over the age of 50 appeared to be outnumbering younger voters, who had dominated the Democratic primary<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Latest polling the race for NYC mayor<\/p>\n

Since winning a stunning Democratic primary victory<\/a>, Mamdani has consistently polled ahead of the pack<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the latest poll released over the weekend<\/a> showed his lead may be narrowing, down to just single digits over Cuomo. The Atlas poll, which survey over 1,500 people through Oct. 30, had Mamdani with 40% of the vote, Cuomo with 34% and Sliwa with 24%.<\/p>\n

Three separate polls released late last week<\/a> showed Mamdani with at least a 10-point lead over Cuomo, including an Emerson College poll that had Mamdani at 50%, Cuomo at 25% and Sliwa at 21%.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0poll released last Monday from Suffolk University Boston<\/a>\u00a0also found Cuomo was closing the gap. The poll showed 44% of those surveyed in favor of Mamdani, followed by 34% for Cuomo and 11% for Sliwa. A similar poll from Suffolk University Boston in September had Mamdani with double that lead, ahead of Cuomo by 20 points.<\/p>\n

Another poll released last month<\/a> showed a neck-and-neck race between Mamdani and Cuomo if Sliwa were to drop out – something the Republican has repeatedly dismissed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A CBS News poll in September<\/a>, before Mayor Adams left the race, found affordability was top of mind for New York City voters in this election. It showed 37% of likely voters said the cost of living was their most important issue in the race, followed by 31% who said crime and safety.<\/p>\n
