A longtime fixture in New York City politics known for his eccentricities – from his love of cats to his brushes with the mob – now finds himself at the center of one of the most consequential mayoral elections in decades.

With Election Day in NYC just 13 days away, Zohran Mamdani, Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa will meet for the final time on the debate stage.

With 16 days to go before the election, the candidates are trying to take advantage of every remaining second on the campaign trail to convince voters they're the best person for the job.

Zohran Mamdani’s remarks on Israel during the latest NYC mayoral debate have sparked concern among the city’s Jewish community. Critics, including prominent rabbis, warn that his anti-Israel stance could pose a risk to Jewish residents and influence voter sentiment in key neighborhoods.

The first mayoral general election debate was two hours filled with attacks, jibes and wild stories as Zohran Mamdani, Curtis Sliwa and Andrew Cuomo went all out to make their mark.
