As someone who correctly predicted every single state in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election:

Cuomo is being underestimated in the betting markets and most polls.

I'm not saying Cuomo is going to win (although that's still a possibility), and frankly I really don't give a shit who ends up winning.

I'm just saying it'll be closer than most think.

Even Sliwa is still in the race.
