Asking New Yorkers about the NYC mayoral race in the Bronx. These interviews were filmed at the intersection of W Fordham Road and Davidson Ave.

You can check out the election results I mentioned in my intro using these two maps:

2025 NYC Primary results: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/06/24/us/elections/nyc-mayor-primary-results-precinct-map.html

2024 vs 2020 NYC Presidential Election results:

Note: "Man on the street" interviews are not necessarily reliable polling, but I think that they provide an important perspective on issues facing New Yorkers and general attitudes toward city politics.

How I film these interviews:
I ask someone if they'd like to be interviewed about the NYC mayor's race and issues facing the city (no-Billy-on-the-Street-style running up to people and shoving a mic in their face). Most people decline to be interviewed, and I am grateful to everyone who took the time to speak with me.

Feedback on my Spanish welcome. I'm out of practice...
