Polls are closed today after a nine-day stretch of early voting. Five times as many voters cast ballots this year compared to four years ago. Polls reopen tomorrow at 6 a.m. Meanwhile, the federal government shutdown is delaying food assistance for residents who rely on SNAP benefits. Officials in New Jersey say the impact may soon be felt across the state. Plus, Election Day is tomorrow and New Yorkers will elect a new mayor. Democrat Zohran Mamdani is running against independent Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa. WNYC’s Elizabeth Kim joins us live from City Hall to talk about the final stretch of the race.
