As of 3 p.m. ET, roughly 1.4 million New York voters have cast a ballot in this year's elections, with six hours before polls close marking the highest turnout for a city election in 20 years, the city's Board of Elections said.

As New Yorkers vote today to choose the city’s next mayor, Zohran Mamdani has become the frontrunner in a tough three-way race.

Mamdani, the Democratic Socialist frontrunner, has dominated polls and drawn sharp criticism from the president himself as voters prepare to decide who will lead America's largest city.
