Despite a recent endorsement from New York City Mayor Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo’s chances of winning the mayoral race remain stagnant on Polymarket, a prediction market platform. This lack of movement suggests that Adams’ support has not significantly influenced public perception of Cuomo’s candidacy, nor has the news helped boost the market prices on the prediction platform.
Meanwhile, socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani is currently holding a commanding 92% chance of winning an election, according to Polymarket data. Given Cuomo’s struggling campaign and Mamdani’s strong position, one political analyst suggested Cuomo should withdraw from the race and throw his support behind Republican Curtis Sliwa, although the rationale behind this recommendation wasn’t immediately clear.
