## Summary

New York City voters cast more than 1.5 million ballots for Governor Kathy Hochul on Tuesday, exceeding the roughly 1.1 million votes received by Mayor Zohran Mamdani in his 2025 election. The comparison highlights the scale of turnout for Hochul’s re-election in the city, where she won more than three-quarters of the vote.

Statewide, Hochul won nearly 60% with 3.5 million votes, while Blakeman took just over 40% with almost 2.4 million; Mamdani won 50.8% of New York City’s 2025 mayoral vote, with independent Andrew Cuomo also running.
