Mamdani, Cuomo and Sliwa seek to re-introduce themselves to voters with big spending on TV ads
The three leading NYC mayoral candidates began blanketing the airwaves and digital platforms with campaign advertisements this week, dropping hundreds of thousands of dollars to reintroduce themselves to voters and take swipes at one another.
Here’s a look at each of them:
Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic mayoral nominee and frontrunner, went live on Tuesday night with his first TV ad in the Nov. 4 general election. The 30-second spot focuses on the affordability-focused platform that helped him clinch the party’s nomination in June.
The ad, titled “Things Can Change,” opens with a woman speaking directly to the camera on a city street, saying: “I used to love New York, but now it’s just where I live.” It then turns to footage of other New Yorkers watching Mamdani’s primary win on their TVs and phones.
