NYC Mayoral Race: Key Factors and Potential Outcomes

TL;DR Summary
The New York City mayoral primary results may take time to finalize due to the ranked choice voting system, which requires multiple rounds of vote tabulation unless a candidate secures over 50% of first-choice votes. The process, which involves reallocating votes from the least popular candidates, could delay declaring a winner, with results expected to be announced gradually over the following weeks. Incumbent Mayor Eric Adams and former Governor Andrew Cuomo are notable candidates, with Adams running as an independent and Cuomo qualified for the November ballot as an independent.
