In a fiery speech after his win, the next mayor of New York warned Trump that the city will stand united: "To get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."
The poll, which surveyed just over 2,400 voters, comes a day after the same polling outfit had Cuomo trailing Mamdani by six points.

President Donald Trump urged New Yorkers to vote for former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the city’s mayoral race on the eve of the election.
