New York City's incumbent Mayor Eric Adams has officially launched his reelection campaign. This move comes in the wake of a surprising upset by progressive candidate Zohran Mamdani in the recent Democratic primary.
During his campaign announcement at New York City Hall, Adams indirectly referenced Mamdani, describing the election as a choice between contrasting candidates. Adams highlighted his accomplishments, including reduced crime rates and record job creation, while questioning Mamdani's legislative achievements.
