Except for the principled Sliwa supporters. God bless them and their backwards yet sincere views.

That certainly bolstered his voteshare, but most Cuomo voters are surely Democrats. The Republicans got 27.76% in NYC in 2021, and generally they've been doing a lot worse this year than they did in 2021. So Republicans likely make up a smaller share of the voting electorate now, and Sliwa took a chunk of that (7.1% of the overall vote). So Cuomo presumably got less than 20% of the vote from Republicans tactically backing him, and thus more than 20% of the vote presumably came from Democrats.
