Cuomo has signed on to the pact, vowing to exit the race if he is not ahead of other candidates besides Mamdani by mid-September.
The survey was conducted online from July 7–8 among 585 registered voters in New York City.
The margin of error for the total sample is ±4.1 percentage points. This study was conducted independently by HarrisX prior to Andrew Cuomo's announcement to run as an independent in the general election.
