For the first time in 20 years, New York City is poised to put a Democrat in the mayor's office.

The city's Public Advocate, Democrat Bill de Blasio, is running against Republican Joe Lhota, who was formerly the chairman of the Metropolitan Transit Authority.

A New York Times/Siena College poll puts de Blasio well ahead of Lhota in tomorrow's vote.
