Maps show election results for NYC mayor and NJ, Virginia governor's races

Results are still coming in as votes are counted in New York City, New Jersey and Virginia, where Democratic candidates swept to victory in closely watched races.

New York City mayor’s race

Democrat Zohran Mamdani will win the three-way race for New York City mayor, CBS News projects — defeating former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who’s running as an independent, and Republican Curtis Sliwa.

Mamdani, 34, is a democratic socialist who promised rent freezes and free buses during his campaign. Cuomo was backed by several establishment Democrats — and even by President Trump. The closely watched race is all but certain to fuel debate over Democrats’ future going into the midterms, a year after losing the presidency, the House and the Senate in 2024.

Running as a moderate, Spanberger flipped the governorship, which is currently held by Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin. Youngkin is prohibited from running for a consecutive term under state law. The race is widely seen as a referendum on President Trump, who did not endorse Earle-Sears.
