US EditionCuomo warns of ‘destructive extremist forces’ after Adams exits New York City mayor’s race
Andrew Cuomo cited Eric Adams’ exit as evidence of extremist forces threatening political stability ahead of the 2025 New York City mayoral election.
- Eric Adams, New York City's mayor, announced on Sunday that he is dropping his re-election bid amid legal and political challenges.
- Adams faced multiple corruption scandals, including bribery and fraud indictments against him and his aides since September 2024, and he has maintained his innocence.
- Before the indictments, Adams was already losing support and polling in the single digits, with many seeing no path to a second term due to a lack of accomplishments.
- In a video, Adams asserted his innocence, saying he was unjustly charged due to his efforts for the city. He acknowledged that significant reform is both needed and positive but cautioned against those who propose dismantling the foundational system developed over many years.
- Adams will complete his term ending January 1, 2026, and his withdrawal from the race likely leaves the contest for mayor primarily contested by Zohran Mamdani, a Democrat, and Andrew Cuomo, the ex-governor.
