Eric Adams Kicks Off Reelection Bid, Targets Opponent’s Policies and Record
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

On Thursday, June 26, New York City Mayor Eric Adams kicked off his bid for reelection, presenting himself as a practical, results-oriented leader ready to confront the city’s persistent challenges. From the steps of City Hall, Adams emphasized his track record and portrayed the upcoming race as a decision between proven leadership and what he described as impractical ideals.

Adams drew a sharp contrast between himself and Democratic primary opponent Zohran Mamdani, questioning the feasibility of Mamdani’s progressive proposals—particularly a plan to raise taxes on the wealthy. He pointed out that Mamdani, as a state lawmaker, had the power to act on such initiatives but didn’t.

Earlier in the day on Good Day New York, Adams underscored his achievements in office, including efforts to curb crime and manage the city’s migrant crisis. He described his leadership as “perfectly imperfect,” acknowledging past mistakes while asserting his commitment to progress.

Mamdani, a 33-year-old assemblymember, surprised many by winning the Democratic primary with strong support from progressive voters. Despite that upset, Adams appeared confident heading into the general election, where former Governor Andrew Cuomo may still join the race as an independent. Cuomo has until 5pm Friday, June 27th, to withdraw his candidacy but is expected to stay in.

Adams announced he will run as an independent, stating that doing so frees him from party limitations. He criticized Mamdani’s platform as unworkable and cautioned voters against falling for what he labeled as “snake oil politics,” calling instead for support of leadership grounded in results rather than lofty promises.
