New Yorkers flocked to the polls in the hotly contested mayoral race during the first two days of early voting – with totals five times higher than four years ago, city data showed.
A total of 164.190 voters checked in Saturday and Sunday in the five boroughs, a massive increase over the 31,176 who cast ballots in the first two days of early voting in 2021, when eventual winner Eric Adams faced off against Republican Curtis Sliwa, according to Board of Elections data.
This year, Democratic nominee and front-runner Zohran Mamdani is facing off against GOP candidate Sliwa and independent candidate, ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
“New Yorkers are showing up for early voting and in strong numbers,” said Vincent Ignizio, deputy executive director at the Board of Elections.
“Nearly 165,000 voters have already cast their ballots at 156 sites this weekend. Every vote counts — check your early voting site and hours at vote.nyc. Early voting continues daily through next Sunday, November 2.”

New Yorkers will vote for free stuff and the nation will have to bail them out...
Sounds like voter fraud to me. The Yawkers are going to get what they deserve.
“Every Vote Counts!” “Legitimate or not!”
Perhaps. Perhaps not.
Zohran is offering free stuff.
Communism sells.
And how many hundreds of ballots are sent to the dead or to non-residential addresses?
Are there numbers for the different boroughs?..........
One group gets all the goodies so votes for Mamdani. 🤩🎉🎊🤸
The other group works for a living, pays taxes and does not vote for Mamdani, but pays taxes for all the freeloaders getting the goodies. 😞
True since the FDR New Deal days but now writ large.
the machine is behind this commie

Not under President Trump. That will come when the RATS steal another Presidential election, and take over Congress. Hopefully that won't happen in what is left of my lifetime.
What does all mean? Are there any exit polls to indicate which way the votes are leaning?
Staten Island will go 100% for Sliwa.
Yup. lots of vote fraud in there.
That may be true. Ultimately, it is not going to change the outcome. But it may encourage Staten Island to secede from NYC after the election.

I don’t know much about New York City politics, but if the vote total is significantly different from the pollsters models then the outcome could be a big surprise.
Maybe Mamdani has scared the voters.
Voter fraud? Okay, but I’m sure they did as much as they could in the last election too.
Stupid Gen Z drones lining up to vote for their favorite jihadist who hates them.
Plenty of woke Boomers in NYC joining them.
Wasn’t NYC still in the throes of a COVID shutdown in 2021?
