Eric Adams drops out of New York City mayoral race

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has abandoned his reelection bid in an announcement on Sunday.

“And yet, despite all we’ve achieved, I cannot continue my re election campaign. The constant media speculation about my future and the campaign finance board’s decision to withhold millions of dollars have undermined my ability to raise the funds needed for a serious campaign,” Adams said.

He cited the federal case against him as the reason voters aren’t supporting him.

“I also know some remain unsure of me after the unfortunate events surrounding my federal case, I was wrongfully charged because I fought for this city, and if I had to do it again. I would fight for New York again,” he added.

He used his announcement video to tout achievements of his administration, including lowering crime numbers and increasing rental vouchers and childcare funding.

He did not endorse another candidate in the race.

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.

Hmmmmm....so I guess he's taking up somebody's offer of a better gig?  Maybe ambassador to South Africa or Cambodia or something?

Yes I do.  NYC needs an enema and Mondavi is just the little anal suppository to do it.

It’s time for Sliwa to do the right thing and drop out. pic.twitter.com/YN6U24MtmQ— Eyal Yakoby (@EYakoby) September 29, 2025



Fishrrman's comments:
I don't think the X headline conveys what the poster wanted.

I sense what he really intended to say is that if Sliwa's 18% could be added to cuomo's 30%, the combined total just MIGHT be able to overcome zombie-mammi.

But there's STILL about 8% or so unmentioned above.
I reckon 3-4% of that will go to zombie-mammi, putting him out-of-reach to cuomo, even with the support of the other [now gone] candidates...

At this point, zombie-mammi STILL looks to be the winner.

Oh well.
