The NYC mayoral winner will be announced after the November 4, 2025 general election, with results typically declared on or soon after voting ends at 9:00 PM local time, depending on vote counting and any required runoff or ranked- choice processes. However, until official results are released by city authorities, any public-facing projections are unofficial. Key points to know:
- Election date: November 4, 2025.
- Voting method: First-past-the-post for the general election, though the city uses ranked-choice voting in primaries; the general result is determined by the plurality of votes.
- When results come in: Polls close at 9:00 PM local time; in most years, the winner is announced within hours, but very close races can take longer if absentee ballots or provisional ballots require processing.
- Official sources: The New York City Board of Elections (BOE) provides the certified results after counting and any audits.
If you’d like, I can monitor for the latest official updates on the NYC BOE site and provide a running summary of when results are posted and when a winner is officially certified.
