Cuomo is trying to portray his opponent, Zohran Mamdani, as a socialist enemy of the city, while Mamdani's campaign is gaining traction among progressive voters. Cuomo's new strategy includes visiting various neighborhoods and engaging with voters, but his independent bid faces challenges due to the city's Democratic majority.
