Eric Adams comes out of the New York City mayor’s race

In a video clip that was released on social media, Eric Adams proudly spoke of his mandate as the mayor of New York City. But he said that the issue of federal corruption that he has now had left voters hesitant towards him. In addition, the politician claimed “the ongoing media speculation” about his future making enough money to run an impossible dangerous campaign.

“Despite everything we have achieved, I cannot continue my campaign to re -election,” Adams said.

The mayor of New York City did not support any candidates in the race. However, he warned against “treacherous forces” using the local ruling of “divisional agenda.”

Adams said: “This does not change, and this is chaos.” “Instead, I urge the population of New York to choose the leaders not what they promise, but what they have provided.”

Last year was Adams!

Speculation that Eric Adams will not reach the election day was rampant for a year. His campaign was severely re -elected by the issue of bribery and liberal anger over his warm relationship with President Donald Trump. The democratic preliminary elections exceeded and obtained the poll as an independent.

Adams, 65, is the mayor of the second black city. Former New York City Police chief and President of Brooklyn Boro, and took office in 2022. At that time, he promised to cut the crime and stimulate a city that still bounces from the Korona virus. He succeeded in the issue of his signature. The crime rates that reached the top declined after Covid-19 struck the city to prenatal levels. However, it is unclear how clear it was due to Adams’s policies.

However, scandals and corruption investigations have paralyzed the chances of Eric Adams in another period. Over a few weeks of last year, the Police Commissioner, School Adviser and several municipal deputies resigned in the wake of a series of federal raids on their homes. No one faced criminal charges.

Then, in late September 2024, Federal Public Prosecutors brought charges of fraud and bribery against Eric Adams, accusing him of accepting the contributions of the illegal campaign and highly declining travel discounts from a Turkish official and others. On the other hand, it was claimed that the mayor of New York City had accelerated at the opening of the diplomatic building in Türkiye, among other services.

At the same time, Adams denied that any violations were committed and pledged to stay in office. He also started talking warm about Trump, who was expected to take the White House – and then. He defended Trump in media surroundings, urged his party to reduce the speech against Republicans, and refrained from criticizing him.

After Trump’s victory, Eric Adams met with Caesar Trump, Thomas Human. Then, in February, the Trump Ministry of Justice ordered the federal prosecutors in New York to drop the charges against Eric Adams so that the mayor could help in the immigration agenda of the Republican President. The table intervention shook in the city hall, where some claimed that the mayor of New York City concluded a deal with the White House for his freedom.

Adams announced that he would exceed the democratic introductory elections in June, but remains in the race. In late August, the former Adams advisers – who held a volunteer position in the campaign – were charged with new bribery. Another former assistant was removed from his re -elected campaign after a local correspondent of the potato chips was delivered full of cash.

Who are the remaining municipal candidates?

The end of Eric Adams can raise the previous government campaign. Andrew Como. He portrayed himself as the only candidate capable of overcoming the Democratic Party candidate, a member of the State Association Zahran Mamdani. It is unclear whether a sufficient number of Adams supporters will turn their support to Cuomo to make a change.

If elected, Mamdani, 33, will be the youngest and most liberal mayor of the city in generations. Komo has decisively overcoming the democratic preliminary elections through his campaign against a promise to reduce the cost of living in one of the most expensive cities in the world.
Mamdani, Komo, and Republican Cortis Slawa remain in the municipal race.

In a statement after Eric Adams announced, Zahran Mamdani was aimed at Andrew Como. Komo is trying to return political after his resignation from the ruler’s office in 2021 after accusations of sexual harassment by many women.

“New York deserves better than trading in a corrupt, corrupt politician for another person. On the fourth of November, we will run the page to the policy of big money and small ideas and offer a government that can be proud of all of New York.”

Como, in a statement of social media, Adams praised “The well -being of New York City before personal ambition.”

He added: “We are facing devastating extremist powers that will destroy our city through inefficiency or ignorance, but it has not been too late to stop it.”

As we mentioned, Sliwa also remains in the race. However, he was nominated by his party. For example, Trump called him, in an interview with him recently “Not exactly peak time.” However, Sliwa has repeatedly insisted that it will not resign.
