Andrew Yang concedes and tells supporters he's 'not going to be mayor of NYC'

From CNN's Greg Krieg in New York City

A voter arrives at a polling station set up at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on New York’s Primary Election Day on June 22, 2021. Anthony Behar/Sipa USAWe expect to learn some results tonight. But we won't know the final outcome of races using the ranked-choice voting, including the highly contested 13-person Democratic primary in the mayor's race.

Under the new ranked-choice system, voters are being given the option to rank five candidates. Once the ballots are in, the candidate with the lowest number of votes will be removed from the running and their voters' second choices reapportioned. The first candidate to cross the 50% threshold wins.Expecting to learn who won the ranked-choice races on Tuesday night? Don't.

The implementation of ranked-choice voting means that the one certainty on primary day is that New Yorkers will have to wait —for weeks — before most of the biggest races are decided. At some point after the polls close on Tuesday night, the city's Board of Elections will release the first-choice numbers from early and in-person voting. But that will only provide a narrow view of the results.
