New York City’s former sanitation commissioner Kathryn Garcia is leading the Democratic field of mayoral hopefuls in a new poll, according to a report in Politico.

With less than a month to go until the June 22 primary, 21% of likely voters surveyed on Sunday and Monday favor Garcia to be the city’s next mayor, Politico said, citing a poll by Emerson College and PIX11 News that is slated to be released Tuesday evening.
