New Yorkers Have a Long List of Demands

From homelessness and affordable housing to fixing public transit, protecting subway riders, and improving education and public safety, Democratic Primary voters in New York have high expectations that are not being met.

The poll also finds that Mayor Adams has a narrow path to re-election and that Governor Cuomo would be an instant frontrunner should he decide to get into the race.

Methodology

From January 7 to January 13, 2025, Probolsky Research conducted a survey among likely 2025 New York City Democratic Primary Election voters. The sample was compiled from voter file data and matched to the demographics of likely voters. A stratified random sampling methodology was used to ensure accurate representation.

The survey was administered by phone (33%) and online (67%). Phone interviews were conducted via landline (32%) and mobile (68%), while online participants were invited by email (50%) and text message (50%). Respondents could choose their preferred language: Cantonese (<1%), English (94%), or Spanish (6%).

The survey has a margin of error of +/-5% citywide and +/-5.8% for Manhattan oversample, CCD 28 oversample, and CCD 39 oversample, all with a 95% confidence level.

These results are being released for public interest only.

Race for San Francisco Mayor Tied

San Francisco uses ranked-choice voting. Ours is the only public poll that fully adheres to how the City’s Election Department counts the votes.

“Farrell’s strength this early in the election cycle is a very good sign for his campaign,” explained Adam Probolsky, president of Probolsky Research. “While tied for the lead, Breed has limited upside potential — she needs to hold on to every vote she has. Farrell has room to grow his support base from voters who are currently choosing other challenger candidates.”

This poll was funded by the San Francisco Deputy Sheriff’s Association Political Action Committee.
