5 Key Points from the First NYC Mayoral Debate
Three distinct candidates, Andrew Cuomo, Curtis Sliwa, and Zohran Mamdani, took the stage for the first NYC mayoral debate with three weeks left until Election Day.
The debate featured the Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani, who currently holds a double-digit lead in the polls, independent candidate Andrew Cuomo, and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who faces a significant deficit.
Curtis Sliwa noted that there was "way too much testosterone" on the stage.
Mamdani must maintain his lead, while Cuomo and Sliwa aim to close the gap in the remaining time before the election.
