The 2025 New York City mayoral election is scheduled to occur on November 4, 2025. The incumbent, Mayor Eric Adams, was elected mayor on the Democratic Party line in 2021 but is seeking re-election to a second term as an independent. He was indicted on federal corruption charges in September 2024 and has faced calls to resign from office. The Department of Justice ordered prosecutors to drop the charges against Adams in February 2025, and the case was dismissed with prejudice in April 2025.

Primary elections for the Democratic Party were held on June 24, 2025, with the early voting period beginning on June 14. State Assembly member Zohran Mamdani is the presumptive Democratic nominee for mayor;[1] Mamdani is believed to have prevailed in the primary, which also featured former governor Andrew Cuomo, City Comptroller Brad Lander, and eight other candidates. However, Cuomo will remain in the race as an independent on the Fight and Deliver ticket. The Republican Party nominated Curtis Sliwa, the party's 2021 mayoral nominee.

The primary elections were conducted with ranked-choice voting, while the general election will use the first-past-the-post system.[2]

Background

Eric Adams was elected mayor of New York City in 2021, narrowly winning a primary election and defeating Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa in the general election. As mayor, Adams has implemented tough-on-crime policies such as the reintroduction of plainclothes police officers and increased policing in the city's subway system.[3][4] Adams has also received criticism for his handling of the migrant housing crisis,[5] the FBI investigation into his 2021 campaign,[6] his support for zero tolerance policies against the homeless,[7] and his perceived closeness to Republican president Donald Trump.[8][9] A December 2023 poll published by Quinnipiac University Polling Institute showed Adams' approval rating at 28% among registered voters, the lowest approval of any mayor since the institution began polling in the city in 1996.[10]

On September 25, 2024, following a series of criminal investigations into his administration, Adams was indicted on federal bribery, fraud, and conspiracy charges.[11] He is the first New York City mayor to be charged with crimes while in office, and has received several calls to resign before the end of his term.[12][13][14] An early October 2024 poll conducted by Marist College found his approval rating to be just 26%, and found that 69% of voters thought he should resign.[15]

On February 10, 2025, the United States Department of Justice's acting U.S. Deputy Attorney General, Emil Bove, ordered federal prosecutors to dismiss all charges against Adams without prejudice pending a review to be conducted following the general election in November.[16][17] Bove asserted that the pending case against Adams might impede his efforts to work with the Donald Trump administration on immigration enforcement and crime.[18] The dismissal of the case "raised questions about the mayor's political independence and ability to lead the city".[19] Four of Adams's deputy mayors tendered their resignations.[18][19][a] On February 17, City Comptroller Brad Lander (who was also a candidate in this election) issued an open letter giving Adams a deadline of February 21 to present a contingency plan to deal with the crisis in his administration.[22][23] The case against Adams was dismissed with prejudice in April 2025.[16]

On April 3, 2025, Adams announced that he would exit the Democratic primary and would instead run in the general election as an independent.[24] Adams's move changed the dynamic of the race.[25] Former governor of New York Andrew Cuomo led most Democratic primary polls following the announcement of his intention to run on March 1;[26] he also successfully petitioned his way onto the general election ballot on the Fight and Deliver ballot line.[27]

Adams is the first incumbent mayor to seek re-election without the nomination of either major party since John Lindsay in 1969; Lindsay lost the Republican nomination, but ran and won on the Liberal Party line.[28] Adams has circulated petitions to run on an "EndAntiSemitism" ballot line, as well as a "Safe&Affordable" ballot line.[29] However, the Board of Elections has limited candidates to one ballot line under state election law.[30][31]

Democratic primary

Primary elections for the Democratic Party were held on June 24, 2025, with the early voting period beginning on June 14.[32] In New York City, primaries are held using ranked-choice voting, also known as instant-runoff voting.[33] The Board of Elections anticipates releasing an unofficial tabulation of first choice votes on election night and a tabulation of the full rankings a week later.[34]

In early 2025, polls showed former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo leading all other mayoral candidates among Democratic voters.[26] A campaign calling on voters not to list Cuomo on the multi-choice ranking system for the Democratic primary formed in early 2025.[35][36][37] Leading up to the election, polls showed that Cuomo continued to be the narrow frontrunner in the Democratic primary, with Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani in second place;[38][39][40] one June poll found that Mamdani had a narrow lead over Cuomo.[41]

First-choice results from the June 24 primary showed that Mamdani had a large lead over Cuomo,[42][43] who conceded the race to Mamdani that evening.[44] The result, which has not yet become official, is considered a major upset.[45] Nevertheless, Cuomo, who also filed to run on the independent "Fight and Deliver Party" ticket,[46][47] will remain in the general election race.[48]

Third-party and independent candidates

Fight and Deliver

Cuomo, who ran in the Democratic primary, formed a minor political party to run on in the general election in May 2025.[83] Since losing the Democratic primary, Cuomo has considered not running in the general election, and his campaign will examine results following ranked-choice voting tabulation on July 1.[84] Meanwhile, sources close to his campaign indicated to the New York Post that he would drop out of the race.[85] On social media, however, his spokesman criticized the Post report as a "pressure campaign ... not rooted in reality," though he then deleted the social media post later the following day.[86][87] Cuomo had told CBS News earlier in the day that he would still be reviewing the numbers from the primary and the general election landscape.[88] Subsequently, CNN reported that he would not withdraw his name from the ballot, although he was reportedly still considering whether or not to actively campaign in the general election.[89] ABC News would confirm he would stay on the ballot as well, as did Fox News and USA Today.[90][91][92]

Declared

Working Families Party

The Working Families Party (WFP) often endorses Democratic Party nominees in general elections even if those nominees did not receive WFP support in their respective Democratic primaries. On May 30, 2025, the WFP endorsed Mamdani. The party instructed voters to rank Mamdani first, with Brad Lander at 2, Adrienne Adams at 3, Zellnor Myrie at 4, and Jessica Ramos at 5.[94] Ana María Archila, co-director of the New York WFP, indicated that if Andrew Cuomo won the Democratic mayoral primary, the party would most likely nominate someone other than Cuomo for mayor.[25] On June 6, the WFP removed Ramos from their slate after she endorsed Cuomo.[95]

Notes

  1. ^ The Department of Justice order also sparked a series of resignations within the Department of Justice, where seven prosecutors—including acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon and Assistant U.S. Attorney Hagan Scotten, who was the lead prosecutor on the case—resigned.[20][21]
  2. ^ In April 2025, Politico reported that Adams was "gathering signatures for two new ballot lines, 'EndAntiSemitism' and 'Safe&Affordable'".
  3. ^ Walden has sought to gather signatures for an "Independence Party" ballot line. New York law prohibits using the words "independence" or "independent" on ballot lines. Walden has sued, challenging this ban as unconstitutional.
