The Ex-Governor owns the older voters….
Mamdani owns the younger less money earning voters…..
Cuomo trails by 19% points with four people still in the race….
(Cuomo’s favoribity numbers are horrible)
A DIRECT TWO man race brings Cuomo within striking distance ….
But?
THAT is not the situation….
The Sienna poll also has Trump @ a 37% Favorable in the old home state….
The poll is extensive on New York City and New York State Politics…
…
“Overwhelming majorities of Democrats and independents say Trump is not succeeding making necessities more affordable and ending wars around the world.
And about one-quarter of Republicans also say he’s not succeeding on these issues.”
NYC Registered Voters Give Mamdani 19-Point Lead Over Cuomo, 44-25%, Sliwa Third, Adams Fourth
Among the 39% of registered (not likely) voters from New York City included in this poll, 44% say they support
Democrat Zohran Mamdani, compared to 25% who support independent Andrew Cuomo, 12% for Republican
Curtis Sliwa and 7% for independent incumbent Mayor Eric Adams.
“While City Democrats favor Mamdani over Cuomo 53-32%, with single digits for the other two, more than two-
thirds of City Republicans support Sliwa. City independent voters are more closely divided, with 30% supporting
Mamdani and 20% supporting Adams,” Greenberg said. “City voters under 35 are overwhelmingly supporting
Mamdani, as are a plurality of voters 35-54, however, voters 55 and older back Cuomo over Mamdani, 38-32%.”Siena Poll – August 12, 2025 – Page 4
“Mamdani, included in the Siena poll for the first time, has a 46-32% favorability rating with New York City
voters and a negative 28-37% favorability rating among voters statewide,” Greenberg said. “Cuomo has an
underwater favorability rating with City voters, 37-54%, and an even worse 29-61% favorability rating with
statewide voters, the worst ever favorability rating for Cuomo in a Siena poll. In fact, among Democrats
statewide, Cuomo’s favorability rating is 36-56%, down from 51-39% in March.
Adams is also underwater with voters in the City, 30-58%, statewide 22-51%, and among Democrats statewide
22-59%,” Greenberg said. “Sliwa has a 26-30% statewide favorability rating, and 30-42% in the City.”
Odds & Ends
➢ Senator Chuck Schumer has his lowest ever favorability rating in a Siena poll (dating to February 2005),
38-50%, down from 41-47% in June. Among Democrats his favorability rating is 49-39%, down from
55-35% in June. For the first time ever, he is underwater with New York City voters, 39-46%.
➢ Since her re-election last year, voters have soured on Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. Her favorability rating stands
at 36-38%, down from 44-26% last October (among likely 2024 voters). While a plurality of Democrats views her favorably, pluralities of Republicans and independents view her unfavorably.
➢ Voters are still pessimistic about the direction of the state,….
