00:00And as Election Day unfolds in the United States with key phrases in New York City,
00:05New Jersey and Virginia, we go to our correspondent, Henry Gamelo, who has all the latest information
00:09on this matter.
00:13Greetings from New York.
00:15The Marriott election continues in New York City, with more and more people continuing
00:20to approach the polling stations on an Election Day that is very special for New Yorkers,
00:26as severe circumstances are affecting not only the city but also the country.
00:32Massive raids that have terrorized the immigrant community, a government shutdown due to budget
00:37disagreements that is leaving both government employees and 42 million low-income families
00:44facing food shortages.
00:46In addition to economic inflation that is hardly hitting the pockets of Americans, and especially
00:52New York residents, considered one of the most expensive cities in the world to live in.
00:58According to the most recent polls conducted by Quinnipiac University, Soran Mandani is leading
01:05with 43 percent of the electorate preference, followed by Andrew Cuomo with 33 percent and
01:11Curtis Lewa with 14 percent of New York support.
01:15Soran Mandani, according to all predictions, will be the next mayor of this city.
01:21The three candidates have already cast their votes in different counties of the city.
01:27The eyes of the wall are especially focused on these elections, since they represent through
01:33Mandani the resistance that the people can mount against the abuse of power currently exercised
01:41by the Trump administration over Americans.
01:44Mandani will bring socialism to New York amidst a Trump administration marked by discrimination,
01:51deportation of immigrants, and cuts to social programs.
01:56Early voting showed a record number of 735,000 voters.
02:03The polls will close at 9 p.m. today.
02:07Americans are also electing a governor and assembly members in the state of New Jersey.
02:13In the state of Virginia, people are also electing their new governor.
02:17And in California, they are also voting today on Proposition 50, which would redistribute electoral
02:25districts, granting five more seats in the Senate in the next midterm elections.
02:31We will closely follow all what happened in this election to bring you all the details.
02:38That's the information I have from New York back to you in the studio.
