Only 20 percent of Jews stated in the new poll that they plan on voting for Mamdani, undercutting previous polling that indicated the firebrand progressive winning a plurality of New York City Jewish support.
Other candidates, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (21 percent), incumbent Mayor Eric Adams (25 percent), and Republican challenger Curtis Sliwa (14 percent), are all drawing significant backing.
GOP New York mayoral candidate Curtis Silwa, founder of the Guardian Angels, says anti-Israel socialist opponent Zohran Mamdani will bring crime back to '1970s levels.'
Mamdani attempts to cover for his past and his current ties by saying he will fight antisemitism, but uses contradictory language out of the other side of his mouth.
Mamdani has accused Israel of 'indiscriminate,' 'limitless' and 'criminal killing of civilians' and has said he would have Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrested if he comes to New York City, where the United Nations headquarters is located.
Mamdani commands 8 percent of the vote among New Yorkers, good enough for third place, according to a poll by Quinnipiac conducted between Feb. 27-Mar. 3.
