Ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo would prevail over socialist Zohran Mamdani in a ranked-choice voting Democratic primary for mayor, according to a new poll released Tuesday.

Cuomo led Mamdani 34% to 16% when voters were asked about their first choice even as Mamdani chipped away at Cuomo’s dominance in early polling, the Siena College/AARP survey of 556 registered city Democrats found.

Three other candidates in the crowded primary each got 6% support — city Comptroller Brad Lander, his predecessor Scott Stringer and Council Speaker Adrienne Adams.

State Sens. Zellnor Myrie and Jessica Ramos received 4% apiece, according to the survey.

Am I the only one who wants to see the socialist win for the fun of it?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

I'd rather see Adams win. He is the least crazy of them all.

[RetiredTexasVet]

NYC deserves Cuomo and the Weiner.

[mewzilla]

NYC has RCV for mayorals.

Maybe if he sexually assaults and harasses a few people, he can take the lead from Cuomo.

[Huskrrrr]

Potato, potatoe.

[gibsonguy]

I don’t think it matters. NY is lost.

[Sacajaweau]

Rank Choice vote...Best rigging game in Town.

Shakin’ my head. Kin folk spinning around 2800 rpm up around Hudson.

[MinorityRepublican]

If I’m in NYC, I’ll vote for the Socialist. It’s rigged anyway due to RCV.

[Reddy]

Stank-choice-voting should be abolished everywhere.

so-called “progressive” NY City has been living off the work and skimming of others, they think socialism is a natural, God-given state of human governance.

without Fed.gov spending and printed, fiat money and massive debt traded on Wall Street, NY city would be an average size city.

Mamdani is another globalist red-diaper baby. He’s an avowed socialist, so its possible he may even be in the CIA

Born in Uganda to Indian Parents, moved to South Africa, then to USA. Father was a typical marxist professor, who wound up at Columbia.

Its almost the standard WEF, globalist, deep-state resume at this point.

Mabey if Zohran gets his nipples pierced like Cuomo, he’d have a better chance?

[Fai Mao]

Dumber and dumbest

I couldn’t agree more.

[No name given]

Just like Commiefornia.

[JZelle]

No, they deserve him.
