Putting the IBX route next to the voting map also helps narrow down where the biggest rezoning fights are going to play out. Lots of resistance to greater density in the pro-Cuomo nabes in Queens

We're live again today, and Mamdani is at the Uniphere about to speak.

We're carrying Mamdani's speech live in the blog

New York City voters on Tuesday delivered a strong message in support of building more housing, passing three proposals that pitted City Hall against the City Council in an effort to rewrite decades-old development rules.

The arc of his success is nothing short of staggering. At the start of the year, Mamdani was polling at 1%, tied, as he likes to say, with the candidate known as “someone else.” Now, at age 34, he will be NYC's youngest leader in more than a century

Mamdani wins

If you want the granular look at how the NYC mayoral candidates perform in neighborhoods across the city, you'll want to watch this precinct-level map, which will update as results start coming in.

As of 6 p.m., about 1.85 million New Yorkers had voted, already more than the final total in any election since 1993. Turnout is on track to surpass 2 million for the first time since 1969, when John V. Lindsay won re-election.

There's been a lot of discussion of the ballot in the NYC mayoral election because New York has a somewhat different approach to parties and ballot lines than many states. Here's an explainer for why some candidates appear twice. (On my Brooklyn ballot, some judicial candidates appeared on 3 lines.)

Polls don't close until 9 p.m., but here's a gift link to the results page for the NYC mayoral election to bookmark to watch once they do. (No needle for this one.)

What sets Mr. Moore’s case apart from others like it was that much of what happened to him was recorded on a hand-held camera by a corrections officer who was required under departmental policy to film the encounter, known in the system as a “cell extraction.”

Live coverage of the NYC mayoral race continues today as the candidates make their final appeals to voters across the five boroughs.

When fall weather rolls around and I can open my windows again without getting eaten by mosquitos, I am reminded that 25 years of church choir permanently took over over large parts of my brain every time the bells on the nearby church do thrice-daily concerts and I know all the words to the songs.

I spent most of my day live-blogging the NYC marathon. It’s the start to a hectic stretch at work over the next few days, but it was, as always, one of the best days of the year.

A new "Bangladeshi Express" between Brooklyn and Queens. Tens of thousands of potential housing units. And the closest thing New Yorkers could get to an Airtrain. Here's how the IBX train could reshape life in New York City. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/n...

Ms. Bullaro, a retired health care worker, said she receives $292 per month in food stamps, just under the maximum allotment for a single person. Without it, she said she most likely will be limited to meals with eggs, bread and pasta.

If you're running in, cheering for, or hoping to avoid the NYC Marathon on Sunday, here's our guide to the race:

And we're live for another day of NYC mayoral election coverage. An Emerson College poll shows 50% of likely voters supporting Mamdani, with Cuomo receiving the support of 25% of likely voters, a few points ahead of Sliwa, who logged 21%.

While it is approaching Election Day, it is also almost the day for the NYC Marathon, which is perhaps my favorite day of the year in New York City. Our coverage starts tomorrow with my guide to the marathon and spectator's guide and will continue through our live blog on Sunday.

Former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo earned nearly $5 million working as a private consultant in 2024, a sum so large it puts him in the top 0.5 percent of New York City earners, according to his annual tax returns.

Former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who has repeatedly criticized his rival, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, for living in a rent-stabilized apartment, occupied a rent-stabilized unit himself when he was a young professional living in New York City in the 1980s.

We're live with all today's NYC mayoral election news.

de Blasio told The New York Times on Tuesday evening that the comments attributed to him were invented and that he had not spoken with the British newspaper. (The New York Times and The Times of London are not connected.) “I’m astounded,” he said. “It’s a complete fabrication.”

In the suit, Mr. Naveed said the discriminatory behavior by Mr. Adams and his staff members grew “particularly pronounced” after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel, when he said he was “singled out and scrutinized by his superiors” because of his Muslim identity.

If you haven't been following the NYC mayoral race and want to understand the three candidates' positions better, this quiz might help.

A lawsuit filed on behalf of four New Yorkers charges that the state’s congressional map unconstitutionally dilutes Black and Latino votes in a district that covers Staten Island and part of southern Brooklyn, according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by @nytimes.com.

“For as long as we have lived, we have known that no matter what anyone says, there are still certain forms of hate that are acceptable in the city,” he said while standing outside a mosque in the Bronx. “Islamophobia is not seen as inexcusable.”

A man — we’ll call him, as prosecutors do, John Doe #1 — walked into the building and sat down at an invitation-only, backroom poker table. Other players joined. John Doe #1 believed he had as good a chance as any of them. The others, as described by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, knew better.

“Zohran Mamdani has relentlessly focused on addressing the affordability crisis and explicitly committed to being a mayor for all New Yorkers, including those who do not support his candidacy,” Mr. Jeffries wrote in a statement to @nytimes.com

Within hours, the exchange ricocheted across the campaign trail, where Mr. Mamdani and a cross-section of Democrats denounced the conversation as Islamophobic and outside the bounds of even a heated campaign.

Representative Mikie Sherrill seized on the decision. She promised to “fight this tooth-and-nail and sue the Trump administration,” and contrasted herself with her Republican opponent, Jack Ciattarelli, who she said had pledged to never take the Trump administration to court.

Mr. Adams said in an interview on Thursday that he would campaign with Mr. Cuomo in neighborhoods where the mayor is most popular, and push people to vote for the former governor.

Indictments against N.B.A. players and at least one coach are expected to be unsealed on Thursday morning in one of the largest-scale investigations in professional sports over the past several years.

Former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo walked off the mayoral debate stage Wednesday night and headed straight to Madison Square Garden, joining Mayor Eric Adams courtside in what felt like the prelude to an endorsement.

When state officials visited the Queens building to investigate, a building superintendent and an agent of the management company tried to intimidate potential witnesses with the threat of immigration raids, officials said.

The two campaign officials, who were not authorized to speak publicly, said Mr. Mamdani viewed Ms. Tisch, 44, as a highly effective change agent who had overseen declining crime rates and cleaned up a department rife with allegations of corruption.

His supporters have embraced the issue as a rallying cry against Mr. Cuomo, turning the audio clip into a viral song online. At the same time, he said that his mother has started to sign emails with “Momdani” — a nod to her pride in being his mother that might also help with the pronunciation.

For Mamdani, having his name botched is not new. “I don’t begrudge anyone who tries and gets it wrong," he said. "The effort means everything to me.” But some people intentionally botch it. “Those who go out of their way to mispronounce it — that’s not a mistake, that’s a message,” he said.

ICYMI from yesterday The operation appeared to lead to at least four detentions, according to witnesses, with the sight of dozens of masked agents descending on the edge of TriBeCa making for a visible display of force by the Trump administration in the streets of Manhattan.

The woman was charged with child abandonment and child endangerment after leaving the infant inside the 34th Street-Penn Station subway stop, the police said.

The Hole sits just a few feet above sea level, among the lowest elevations in the city. It can flood after even a modest rainfall, and septic tanks have been known to overflow. The plan would provide the community with a new sewer system, elevate some streets and seek to build affordable housing.

Tonight is the final mayoral debate ahead of early voting, which begins Saturday, and the Nov. 4 election.

Across the country, growing numbers of younger politicians are jumping into big races. In his birthday video, Mamdani, who is more than three decades younger than Cuomo and Sliwa, cracked that getting older was “not something I ever wanted to do. But I know it matters to you.”

Sliwa has improbably emerged as a full-fledged protagonist on the city’s biggest stage — and he is ready to fight anyone trying to push him off before Nov. 4. The defiant posture has made him one of the most prominent Republicans to openly flout Trump and it has enraged Cuomo, a longtime foe.

He likened campaign events to a mosh pit (“I can’t wait to dive in”) and accused Mr. Cuomo of being more interested in trying to buy him off than actually winning votes (“Desperate people do desperate things”), before getting to the point. “I have earned the right to be on that stage,” he said.

Metro-North will run its own lines to Albany for around $40. Currently, Metro-North terminates at Poughkeepsie. Its predecessor last ran trains to Albany in 1967.
