Mamdani, a 34-year-old [unapologetic democratic socialist](https://time.com/7308924/zohran-mamdani-interview-time/), defeated former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ran as an independent after losing to Mamdani in the Democratic primary in June, and Republican Curtis Sliwa. Across the city’s five boroughs, Mamdani—who won 50.4% of the vote, besting the two other candidates combined—won decisively in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx, while Cuomo only took Staten Island. **Read More:** [_Watch Mamdani’s Full Election Victory Speech and Read the Transcript_](https://time.com/7331243/watch-zohran-mamdani-victory-speech/) Here’s a breakdown of where Mamdani performed best and worst, based on precinct-level results from the [_New York Times’_ electoral dashboard](https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/11/04/us/elections/nyc-mayor-results-precinct-map.html). Cuomo did better in areas with mostly white residents, according to the _Times_, while Mamdani did better in areas with mostly Asian, Black, or Hispanic residents. Mamdani also did better in precincts where former Vice President and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris won in the 2024 election, while Cuomo did better in precincts where President Donald Trump, who [endorsed](https://time.com/7330806/trump-cuomo-mamdani-nyc-mayor-race/) Cuomo on the eve of the election, won last year. According to an [analysis](https://www.thecity.nyc/2025/11/04/election-results-nyc-mayor-mamdani-cuomo-sliwa/) by non-profit New York news outlet The City, which broke down the candidates’ performances among different demographics, Mamdani outperformed his competitors across income levels, winning 50% or more of the vote in election districts where most households were below the median income level as well as in districts at or above the median income level. And Mamdani also did significantly better in election districts with more public transit riders, mostly renters, or more public housing projects, while Cuomo did better in districts with more drivers and mostly homeowners. **Read More:** [_How the Right Is Reacting to Democrats’ Big Night_](https://time.com/7331260/republican-reactions-democrat-wins-elections-mamdani-trump-midterms/) Mamdani swept most of Manhattan. Mamdani had the highest margins of victory—the difference between the number of votes between the first and second place candidates—in Morningside Heights (+49), Hamilton Heights (+47), Harlem (+45), and the East Village (+42). Cuomo won in the Upper East Side, Midtown, Midtown East, Murray Hill, NoMad, Flatiron, NoHo, TriBeCa, Two Bridges, and Battery Park. His highest margins of victory in Manhattan were in Midtown East, Upper East Side, and Battery Park, where he had a 24-point margin over Mamdani, and Tribeca, where he had a 26-point margin. The Upper East Side had the highest total number of votes per neighborhood based on the _Times_ breakdown at 90,390. Many of the neighborhoods where Mamdani had the biggest margins of victory were in Brooklyn, especially towards the north. Bushwick, where 29,197 people voted, delivered Mamdani a 67-point margin of victory. He had the same margin in Clinton Hill, where 11,369 people voted; Prospect Heights, where 10,119 people voted; and East Williamsburg, where 5,030 people voted. Mamdani had similarly huge margins of victory at or above 50 points in 14 more Brooklyn neighborhoods: Greenwood Heights, South Slope, Ditmas Park, Greenpoint, Fort Greene, Gowanus, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Boerum Hill, Park Slope, Flatbush, Ocean Hill, Downtown Brooklyn, Prospect Lefferts Gardens, and Windsor Terrace. Bedford Stuyvesant, which had the third highest total number of votes for a neighborhood behind the Upper East Side and Upper West Side, delivered Mamdani a 57-point margin of victory, with 77% of 48,030 votes. (Mamdani also won the Upper West Side, where 85,951 people voted, by a 5-point margin.) **Read More:** [_What Zohran Mamdani Teaches Us About the Moral City_](https://time.com/7330982/zohran-mamdani-affordable-moral-city/) In many south Brooklyn neighborhoods, Cuomo performed better. Borough Park, Coney Island, and Sheepshead Bay were among the places Cuomo had the biggest margins of victory. In Borough Park, Cuomo won with a 78-point margin over Mamdani, in Sheepshead Bay he had a 52-point margin of victory, and in Coney Island he had a 43-point margin of victory. In Queens, Mamdani had the largest margins of victory in Jamaica Hills (+54), Ridgewood (+48), and Long Island City (+42). He also won easily in several more of Queens’ big neighborhoods, including Astoria, which he represented as a state assemblymember and where he won with a 39-point margin of victory and 66% of a total 45,362 votes. Cuomo performed better in the north-central and northeast neighborhoods of Queens, including Bayside (+25), Flushing (+13), and Douglaston (+35). Cuomo won in most parts of Staten Island, with the exception of most north shore neighborhoods which went to Mamdani. Mamdani also flipped the Bronx, where Cuomo had won a majority of first-choice votes in the Democratic primary. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/7331271/zohran-mamdani-andrew-cuomo-mayor-election-results-nyc-neighborhoods-map/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/7331271/zohran-mamdani-andrew-cuomo-mayor-election-results-nyc-neighborhoods-map/"},"headline":"Which New York City Neighborhoods Mamdani Did the Best and Worst In","datePublished":"2025-11-05T09:45:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-10-19T08:12:42.995Z","description":"Here’s how Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and defeated former Gov.
