New York City (NYC) Mayor Eric Adams (D) clarified that he would be staying in the NYC mayoral race, noting that he was the “only one that can beat” NYC mayoral candidate Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D).
“I want to be clear with you,” Adams, who is running as an independent in the NYC mayoral race, said on Friday. “Andrew Cuomo is a snake and a liar. I am in this race, and I’m the only one that can beat Mamdani.”
Adams continued to criticize former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) for “having a career of pushing black candidates out of races.”
“This city can’t go backwards, New Yorkers,” Adams continued. “This is a city that I inherited, where crime was out of control, COVID, no one wanted to be on our subway system. We watched what happened in housing. The reason people are having these conversations is because I make the city safe, I committed myself and dedicated myself to a city that I love, and I’m going to continue to do that.”
