His closest competitor, A Better Contract candidate Amy Arundell, netted 32 percent, according to numbers obtained by The Post.

The full and complete count was announced around 3:30 p.m. via Instagram.

Sources revealed fewer than 30 percent of eligible UFT voters mailed ballots in.

“Apathy prevails in this union of educators,” offered retired teacher Arthur Goldstein, an A Better Contract candidate for assistant secretary.

The votes were counted by the independent Global Election Services.

It was the slimmest margin of victory since Mulgrew’s first run more than a decade ago, sources said.

In 2022, Mulgrew’s Unity party won with 66 percent of the votes, besting United For Change’s then-34 percent.

Mulgrew’s new three-year term begins July 1.
