Can Cuomo close the gap?

Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani apologized to the NYPD for making a social media post in 2020 in which he called the police force racist and homophobic. Meanwhile, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo is changing his tune about Rikers Island and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa is promising to take off the beret if elected. As election day nears, can Cuomo close in on Mamdani with another mayoral debate next week? NY1's investigative reporter Courtney Gross and political reporters Bobby Cuza and Ayana Harry break down the latest in the race for mayor. After that, as we hit the final stretch before Election Day, the "Off Topic" team takes a closer look at the leading candidates: their visions for New York City, the policies they're pushing and how each could reshape the city's future. This week's installment focuses on Andrew Cuomo, who Harry was been covering.
