Yes polling has famously been very wrong. While there is no perfect way to get to the true answer before election day, one more indicator that can help form a picture is enthusiasm. Clearly one candidate has an enormous lead in this metric. Its translating into an amazing ground operation.

I mean if his own Canvassers are voting for Mamdani then it does not look good for him. :)

Having been a part of past NYC elections its not over till its over and then even then its probably not over. NY gives this impression of being some super happy go lucky progressive liberal place but don't be fooled. They have 100+ years of tricks up their sleeves to stop people they don't like. Enough to traumatize me at least. There are ways to battle that but I'll save that for another comment.
